SUN 10/17: Art, Music, Stories

Well, it's not my best weekend of blogging... It could've been worse, folks.

--------------------------------------------------------------

SUN 10/17

11am to 6pm
Annual Fort Point Open Studios
all around Fort Point (South Boston/Seaport)
FREE

Hundreds of artists display their works in the grandaddy of Boston Open Studios.

I like how the Open Studios graphic hops on the autumnal train and says "Pick Your Own Art". Talk to the artists, see some cool stuff, maybe buy something...

Music inspired by the great Django Reinhardt

Story Slam: "Terrified"
at Milky Way Lounge/Bella Luna, 284 Amory St, Jamaica Plain (The Brewery Complex)

Tell a 5-minute real story covered by the theme, and you could advance to the Championship in April.

Again -- hear some awesome bouncy, swinging jazz and pay a little extra for drinks, so it's a trade-off.
