a Drawing (e)VENT in partnership with ACLU-MASS
Saturday, May 1, 2004
Noon to 9 PM
The public was invited to come and join the (e)VENT Project Team and dozens of Boston area artists to contribute to 57 running feet of free expression in response to the Patriot Act and associated threats to civil liberties.
On this day, the gallery walls were covered in paper and loosely gridded with text and interpretations of The Patriot Act. Artists and the public were invited to contribute their own drawings to the walls. There was a "game" aspect to (e)VENT. The "rules" of the game allowed much freedom, but we could not guarantee that civil liberties will not be violated!
Drawing materials were provided and were limited to graphite, colored pencil, markers, watercolor crayons. Participants brought their own materials as long as they are limited to the preceding.
