YARD SALE is the first in a new series of new performance evenings organized by HUCKprojects at mobius. This show brings together some of our favorite artists from around the US; Paul Waddell is flying out from Idyllwild CA, Jeffrey Byrd is in NYC for a performance on Friday at Grace Space and is catching a train up to Boston to perform with us on Saturday night. Vela Phelan (MEME gallery) and Philip Fryer (MEME gallery and The Present Tense) are curating a show at MEME in Cambrige on Friday night...(you should go!), and they will performing with us on Saturday. Nick Buffon is performing all over the place (I can't keep track...) and will some how show up here on Saturday night as well. Joey Sledgianowski and Patrick Wallace run FnordBox, the #1 art garage in the country. Patrick Barter rides bikes, makes knives, studies music and lives somewhere in Vermont. Don't miss this evening, it promises to be one of the best shows of 2010, and we are only 2 months in!

...now if we can only pull it off...
