-Saturday, November 10th, 7pm: Look Vibrant//Brown Eyes//Spicy Water//a UCSC Jazz Combo
*LOOk ViBRANT lookvibrant.bandcamp.com / http://www.firstdatetouring.com/artists/look-vibrant/
Montreal's experimental-pop quartet Look Vibrant, are a wonderpot of musical inventiveness and immediacy, boiling over with energy and steaming into bliss. After releasing two singles of pure noise music (Plateau and Sweater in the Lake), and an EP of polished indie pop (Only Qualms) their debut album, The Up Here Place, perfectly combines these two elements into a product that is equally refined and unhinged. The songs teeter on the brink, threatening to fall apart at your feet, while somehow remaining intact by a logic that is uniquely Look Vibrant. Thematically, the album is an exploration of naive ambition, the constant need to reach ever growing heights, and the inevitable sharp drop that comes in its wake. Recently Look Vibrant has performed alongside notable acts, including Anderson. Paak, Wild Nothing, PALM, Micachu and the Shapes, Alvvays, and Will Butler (Arcade Fire).

-Sunday, November 11th, 1 - 4pm: Prisoner Letter Writing (Virgin Island 3)
Each week we will highlight a specific prisoner, have info on their story and struggle, and have a list of political prisoners to write. Use this time to find a new prisoner penpal, to continue a correspondence or write to someone you know inside. We have materials and stamps but please bring paper, pens and stamps if you like. Some snacks provided.
This Sunday we will be learning about the Virgin Island 3 and drafting letters in support of their application for a commuted sentence. They have been incarcerated since 1973 and are suffering various health problems.
They were convicted using torture-extracted confessions and an absurdly biased court. All were known members of the Virgin Islands independence movement.
Since 2000-2001 they have been incarcerated illegally, when the U.S. terminated its penal jurisdiction for all V.I.-based cases. Since 2015, several petitions have been filed and ignored. Come write a letter and let's ramp-up the campaign to get these three free. https://www.facebook.com/events/255614278458661/

Santa Cruz is Awaswas Ohlone Territory // https://www.facebook.com/events/186668262219346/

* RUG & CRAFT SALE *
A rare opportunity to purchase rugs directly from six visiting Diné artisans who practice an ancient weaving tradition intricately tied to their sacred lands and way of life. Each step of the process is conducted in accordance with cultural protocols, from the herding of churro sheep in the wildlands of Black Mesa to hand shearing, carding, spinning, and dyeing with local plants and minerals.
A large selection of hand made pottery and jewelry by Diné and Amah Mutsun artisans will also be for sale.
* WEAVING DEMONSTRATIONS *
* FOOD & MUSIC *
SCHEDULE:
4pm-7pm: Rug sale and weaving demonstrations
5pm-6pm: Special program (speakers and film)
"We are just children of this earth. As little babies we are staggering around, just learning how to walk. We have not lived here for millions of years. We are just babies. And already we are causing problems, destroying our environment. The heart of our earth is being torn out."
—Rena Babbitt Lane, 96 years old
$10-20 suggested donation, no one turned away // A benefit for Black Mesa families resisting relocation

Comments on the SubRosa website are fully moderated. As a collective, we agreed that the purpose of the website was to promote SubRosa, not to provide an online place for lively and invigorating debate. We hope that the space itself is where conversations on the nature of anarchism and local projects will take place. That said, we occasionally approve comments that are informative or reflect a viewpoint we feel it is important for website visitors to read.
