The 19th annual T-shirt Art Harvest Festival will again connect Chicago visual artists with Chicago musicians to create a magic mixture of creative exuberance for a weekend of fun at the American Indian Center - 1630 W. Wilson Avenue.

When the T-shirt Art Harvest Festival entertains the public with free admis-sion October 3-5 (Friday-Sunday), Chicago musicians will participate playing throughout the weekend. Artwork on t-shirts from 20 years of exhibitions of art on t-shirts will hang with new art from Chicago artists. The bands will exhibit and sell their group t-shirts and CDs. Artists will line the sidewalks with art for sale and t-shirt art will be available for sale and as door prizes at this free event.

It is the destiny of Chicago's popular T-shirt Art Harvest Festival exhibit to connect with Chicago's pop music scenes," says C. Drew - the exhibit's founder. "When Chicago visual artists and musicians mix expect a fantastic time," he adds.

The show opens Friday October 3th at 6:30 with free food and wearable eye-candy for dessert. At 7:30 a Native drum will open up the weekend of bands. Saturday the exhibit opens at 12:00 noon with music from 2:00-10:00pm. Sunday the exhibit opens at 1:00 and music flows from 2:00-8:00pm. On Saturday and Sunday an artists market will fill the walk outside with excitement. Bring a t-shirt or any cotton article of clothing on Saturday afternoon 2-4pm for the free screen print art demonstration and walk away with free wearable art. For the latest information on bands and activities visit art-teez.org/harvest.htm and mark your calendar now. This is a free production of the Uptown Multi-Cultural Art Center.
