Successful Failures: Lumpen's 30th Birthday Party - Fundraiser and Auction
Join us for a once-in-30 years night of delicious food, drink, dancing, and the warm presence of cool buddies like you.
We’ll be toasting Lumpen Magazine's 30th birthday, Public Media Institute's 20th anniversary, Co-Prosperity Chicago’s quince, five continuous years of live, 24-hour FM broadcasting on Lumpen Radio, and the 1-year-old platforms Buddy, Community Kitchen, Lumpen TV, and Co-Prosperity Catskill. We’ll also be raising funds for another year of failures and successes building the communities of the future together.
Come explore three decades of Successful Failures, our new, sometimes-failing exhibition in the Michigan Avenue Galleries of the Chicago Cultural Center, drink Marz beers and Maria’s cocktails, all while listening to Lumpen Radio DJs and bidding on work from artist buddies who’ve graced the walls of Co-Prosperity.
New donations will be matched up to $50,000 by a generous grant from the Reva and David Logan Foundation!
