“It is my pleasure to invite you to the Clapperclaw Music + Arts Festival 2008 (www.clapperclawfestival.com). Clapperclaw is an annual festival celebrating breakout music and arts, with a specific focus on promoting Twin Cities artists. It is a mischievous event, one full of surprises that will have exposure to a wide-ranging experience.  This year we have expanded to more artists, more fashion, a breadth of bands and we have taken over two floors in a warehouse to host it all!
When:  Saturday, November 8th.  Happy hour art opening and bazaar starts at 4 pm.  Fashion show at 7:30pm.  Music starts at 8pm and goes until 2am.
Where:  The Sound Gallery Warehouse- 414 3rd Ave North, Minneapolis 55401.  The Warehouse District, south of Washington Avenue North, by the Twins Stadium Construction.  Parking in two ramps next to the venue.
How much: $5 presale and during happy hour (4-7pm).  I have tickets so come see me or check out www.indietickets.com. $12 after 7pm.  Door cover includes all drinks all night long (thanks to our sponsors, and don’t forget to tip your bartenders) and a portion of the door proceeds go to Free Arts Minnesota, a non-profit dedicated to bringing arts to kids from abusive or broken home lives.  Check them out at www.freeartsminnesota.org.
What:  Music, Art, Fashion, Crafts, Film, people, and so much more!
