The 36 Point First Anniversary Party + Design Benefit

What? A year already? Can it be? I guess we need to celebrate!

36 Point and The Reflex Blue Show are turning a year old! So we’re hosting a party at the Nomad Lounge in downtown Omaha on Saturday, February 28th, 2009 (9PM – close). We have a section in the back reserved, and all are welcome to attend (well, Nebraska state law requires you be 21, we can’t do anything about that part, sorry).

But why just go out, when you can bring in friends and help out a great cause too? So, during the weekend, we’ll also be welcoming to Omaha for the day special guests Steve Hartman of Creativille, Justin Ahrens of Rule29, and Christine Taylor of Hallmark to work on a design for Life in Abundance. The final product will be letterpress posters printed by Spark Stationery (so you know they’ll be sweet, because everything Spark touches looks hot) on Neenah paper (which is awesome too).

We plan to see you a week from Saturday at Nomad, where Nate, Donovan, and our guests will be. A $5 donation to Life in Abundance is recommended to attend. Check our Facebook group to confirm attendance if you want it to be known.

And this is all for a good cause: Life in Abundance works in urban and rural slums of Northeast Africa on helping to empower the most marginalized in areas of education, Aids, healthcare, sanitation, poverty and more by equipping communities to rise above their circumstances.
