Buzzing Around Town

Hip Hop Show featuring Rusty Redenbacher
Monday, December 6, 2010
Melody Inn - 3826 N. Illinois Street
317-923-4707, doors 8:00, show 9:00, 21+, $3.
I miss Rusty! Now that News Café is closed I can't pop in for a quick visit with Rusty. You can get a big Rusty Redenbacher fix at the Melody Inn at the Hip Hop Show. If you're not familiar with hip hop - or even slightly wary, this will be a great show to see what it's all about. Rusty is one of the best!

TOYS 2010
Opening night Friday, December 3, 2010
Gallery 924 - 924 N. Pennsylvania St.
6:00pm - 9:00pm, free, all ages
Primary Colours is hosting their eighth installment of its invitational holiday art exhibit. TOYS features art fashioned around the theme of toys, and invited artists were free to interpret the theme however they wished.
The exhibit will remain on display in the gallery for viewing and purchase through December 22 - perfect for holiday shopping for the art lovers on your list.
The following artists were invited to show: Mike Altman , Ryan Alvis, Justin Cooper, Bruce Dean, Nate Greuel, Blythe Hager, Kyle A. Herrington, Mamus, Carl B. Leck, Jeff Martin, Emma Overman, Jamie Pawlus, Aaron Scamihorn, Nathan Shinkle, Judie Sloan, Eric Smith, Holly Streekstra, Justin Trapp, Phil Velikan and Pam Wishbow.
The artists keep 75% of the proceeds from the sale, the rest going to fund the good works of Primary Colours.
The opening coincides with the First Friday Art Tour. Parking is free on the street after 6pm, in the lot just south of the building, or in the Lucille Raines lot across the street.
This year, Primary Colours is teaming up with VSA Arts of Indiana and asks attendees to bring new or very gently used basic art supplies, such as acrylics, watercolor or tempera paints; colored pencils; erasers; paper; canvases; and brushes that volunteers will collect at the door. VSA will use the donated supplies to provide arts activities to young patients and their families at Riley Hospital for Children and Peyton Manning Children's Hospital in addition to community arts classes around the state.



Not-for-profit director by day, music writer by night, Nora Spitznogle reviews music that happened and previews music and events around Broad Ripple Village. Nora managed CATH Inc coffeehouse at 54th Street and College Avenue for seven years. During that time she hosted hundreds of local and touring musicians, both at the coffeehouse and her home. When CATH closed in 2004 and the music was no longer coming to her, she had to wander from her corner of Broad Ripple to see what is happening elsewhere. You can find her at Second Helpings during the work day, waitressing at the Red Key on Saturday nights and prowling Broad Ripple music venues the rest of the time.
