In addition to all the great events below, this weekend I get to attend a special dinner at the residence of Alberto Aguilar as part of his dinner series celebrating his 36th year. Not bad!

Trendbeheer @ Co-Prosperity Sphere

To coincide with the content and release of the newest issue of Proximity Magazine (which should feature among many things an edited, less hostile copy of my review of Heartland), the CPS crew is bringing in Trendbeheer, a Rotterdam based art and culture blog/collective. They’ll be hosting a few events at the Co-Prosperity Sphere, including a VHS festival this Saturday, November 19th @ 7PM, and a general opening reception with performances this Friday, November 18th, 7 PM – 1 AM @ the Co-Prosperity Sphere, 3219 S Morgan St.
