AREA and the Chicago Underground Library Welcome the Alternative Press Center to Chicago

It is a rare occasion in which two young organizations get to throw a coming out party for a 40 year old institution. Alternative Press Center recently relocated its archive of independent media to Chicago after several decades in Baltimore and is excited to be welcomed by AREA and CUL. APC hopes that librarians, academics, students, teachers, researchers, and concerned citizens of Chicago will come out for a night of complimentary drinks and snacks to say hello and check out a unique local resource.

Friday, October 24th 2008 7-9pm
2040 N. Milwaukee Ave. on the 2nd floor (Location is not handicap accessible). Come and drink from 7-8 and stay for a short talk on the history of the APC and contribute ideas for the new era of their organization after relocating to Chicago. Read more about the organization’s history at www.altpress.org.
