Word.
There's much to do this month at the CCC... and plenty of
down time to just hang out too. The CCC is Milwaukee's premier social
center and infoshop but it's only as cool as the folks who stop by and
breathe life into it. So if you haven't been by in awhile, come with a
friend and make yourselves some free coffee to share conversation over
- or just stop by to read in the warmth of the afternoon sun that
always fills the big front window. If you're looking for scheduled
events, this month is full of them:

Food:
4/10-12: Bake Sale at Riverwest Film and Video (next to Fuel Cafe) 3-11pm

pancakes, french toast, and fruit salad. Help fund MKE's feminist
bookstore!
4/13: Tea Party 7pm. Bring some tea to share with company!
4/18: Late Nite Vegan Cafe & Social Night- 6-11pm cheap eats, incendiary music and conversation.
4/19:
Pancake Breakfast..10am-1ish (vegan) (with chocolate chips upon
request!) There's coffee and the cost is only $1 per cake or $5 for all
you can eat. If you haven't had them, people all over are talking about
how light and fluffy these 'cakes are...
4/27: Tea Party 7pm. Bring some tea to share with company!

Fun:
4/1, 8, 15, 22, & 29: Pins and Needles, a sewing and record listening group, is meeting every Wednesday from 6-8pm.
4/4,
11, 18, & 25: French Tarot Card Game Club & Board-Game Time
1-3ish Come and learn French Tarot - a trick-taking card game somewhat
similar to spades, rook, and pinochle. Game play is a unique blend of
strategy, teamwork, and chance. The game uses a 78 card deck based on
traditional Tarot decks and it's played in groups of 3, 4, or 5
players. Bring a deck of cards or other game to play!
4/17: Screen
Printing Workshop and Collage Extravaganza! 6-8pm Come by at six to
learn how to make prints, then practice on our huge sheets of paper to
make a giant collective screen-printed collage.
4/18: Social Night! 6-11pm
4/23: Show! Alex and the Imaginary Friends (NY) & Project Citizen (NY) $3 Donation
4/30: Bash Back! Film screening of Raspberry Reich. Not for the kids
5/1: MAY DAY Block Party: 3-9pm live music, workshop on small town/neighborhood organizing, free market...stay tuned.

Organizing:
4/4,
11, 18, & 25: Letter writing to prisoners. Writing to support
prisoners can be a lot easier and more enjoyable to do as a group,
especially if it's your first time. Give it a try, and know that you're
helping to create a network of support that will be there when the
state decides that you should be locked up and harassed.
4/5, 12, 19, & 26: Bash Back! Milwaukee, meeting Sundays at 4pm.
4/6, & 20: Help organize the infoshop and library by reshelving books, alphabetizing, tidying the zines, and more. 3-5pm.
4/7: Industrial Workers of the World monthly meeting 6:30 PM
4/7,
14, 21, & 28: CCC umbrella collective meeting. 4:30pm. You're
encouraged to join us to see how events are organized or to propose an
event of your own.


Help!
Our big need this month is
help with promotion. Please pass this email on to friends you think
would be interested and if you'd really like to help, print out the
calendar or stop by the CCC to pick up May Day fliers to post up around
town. Also, feel free to cross-post this to your listserv or other
virtual hangouts. You could also make events and invite people through
facebook to May Day, the show on the 23rd or any other larger event
you'd like.

We can always use help with the Vegan Cafe. Please email or just show up to cook or clean for as long as you'd like.

Much Love,

The Cream City Collectives
