Eleventyseven is headlining Eunoia’s weekly Open Mic night on Thursday, February 16th.
Suggested donation $5 (no pressure).
Come at 7:30 to sign up to perform at Open Mic before the show.
Fresh off a Japanese tour, Eleventyseven, a band having grown up in a time when pop punk reigned supreme, cut their teeth on the high-energy blast beats and bombing guitar tones of their youth. They have carried that approach to their songs into the present day, constantly infusing a sense of energy, passion, and raw heart into their music that seems to call out to the listener.

Through September 23, The Garden hosts Richard Montoya‘s solo exhibition, “AfterWORDS.”
In 2009, after having a successful design business, Richard and his family embarked on an 18 month volunteer training with Youth with a Mission (YWAM) taking him to places like Papua New Guinea, India and Afghanistan. During his time with YWAM he was able to use his skills to bring awareness of injustice issues through his graphics and filmmaking. He is currently on furlough in Virginia.
This exhibit includes new work created while on furlough using text-based imagery to produce visual play on words and their meaning as well as work done while overseas with YWAM.
The Garden is located at 1500 Jefferson Park Avenue. For more information about the exhibit, contact Richard.
