From new friend Melissa Krodman:

Friends! Neighbors! Fellow Humans!!

District Calling: Freedom is almost arrive-ed. We are siked. The show has really come together and let me tell you - the artists involved are incredible. I'm so excited to have people see what we've been working on.

There's video art, there's sinuousness, sermoning and somersaults, there's beautiful music galore, there's an orb and a monolith for crying out loud. yes.
