The Undertow Art Show "Against the Current," in support of Planned Parenthood, is this Saturday.

Two NABC employees have taken the lead in organizing this art show on Saturday, July 30, and given the stated aim of helping support a worthy, besieged cause, I could not be more proud of them. Will Parson Clere attend and give the benediction? Doubtful, but a dissident can dream. For complete details, visit the show's Facebook site.

Undertow also is a LEO staff pick, as follows:

Saturday, July 30

The Undertow Art Show

The Art Store

205 E. Market St., New Albany, IN
812-948-2088

Free; 2-11 p.m.

The intent of this, the latest in a thankfully never-ending stream of art/bands/beer events, is to support Planned Parenthood of Indiana. If this doesn’t speak to your interests, move on, it’s a free country. The organizers state, “The goal of this group exhibit is to showcase artists with a message.” Such artists have been invited to participate by expressing their take on pressing issues of the day (just like the hippies did!), such as the economy, the wars and other “natural” disasters. “From the creation of art, we can open conversation and reach new depths of communication,” they pledge. And did I mention the beer? New Albanian Brewing Company will be selling their drinkable art, and bands like Shawn Sleeps Naked and Bunny Day and the Mercy Buckets will provide the aural art. — Peter Berkowitz
