Six Rooms at Longman and Eagle
Every summer for the past five years, Harold Arts has hosted a residency program for emerging and mid-career artists and musicians on a farm in rural Ohio. As a send-off for this year's program, the Chicago-based nonprofit arts organization presents Six Rooms, a one-night only event at Logan Square gastropub Longman & Eagle.
On Saturday, June 5, local artists Carson Fisk-Vittori, Jesse Harrod, Brian McNearney, David Moré, Edra Soto, and Casey Ann Wasniewski install works in six rooms above the restaurant (future suites in an unopened-as-of-yet boutique hotel). Meanwhile, Dan Bitney (Tortoise), Matt Lux (Isotope 217), and Joe Adamik and Jim Becker (Califone) furnish some live music. There will also be an auction of works by local artists. The event costs $15 (includes a Belgian ale and hors d'oeuvres) and begins at 9pm. Limited space available, so RSVP to rsvp@haroldarts.org. We highly suggest clearing some room in your schedule for this special event.
