The "Battle of Bands" benefit for the Amboy Community Food Pantry is scheduled for Sat. May 22, 2010. We are hoping your group will help with this cause. We are hoping to have enough music to need to start 2 hours earlier this year at 2pm and continue until sunset. I hope you and your band will be able to help us. This has become our largest fund raiser over that last 4 years and our need is greater now that ever. Feel free to contact me, Jim Carpenter @ 501-758-8806 for more information. |

 Ladies, it’s that time of year again. The Suite Ladies are having their Annual Woman’s Worth Celebration and this year we’re partnering with the Arkansas Community Arts Coop (ACAC).
A Woman’s Worth 3
Celebrating women in the Arts

Our goal is to provide a special opportunity to discover and celebrate art and experiences in a variety of forms and mediums that help expand our perceptions of women. The celebration will end with an all female (or female-led) concert.
Please join us as we take a moment to honor the originality, beauty, imagination and multiple dimensions of women’s lives and to reflect on the contribution of women to the arts.
We're still looking for female performers of all music genres (Rock, Blues, Folk, R&B, Rap, etc). Please send an email to

 I was proud to participate for the second year by donating to the Empty Bowls fundraiser for the Arkansas FoodBank Network, but didn't realize that Arkansas is the second hungriest state in the nation. The need in our state is very great and the Foodbank needs your help with the Empty Bowls event! When you donate the proceeds stay in Arkansas. To find out more go to AFBN.

 "Tales From the South" is a radio show created and produced by Temenos Publishing Company and The Midnight Muse Writers' Community, taped live at Starving Artist Cafe' in the Argenta Arts District of North Little Rock, Arkansas, and aired on KUAR Public Radio in Arkansas on the fourth Thursday of each month at 7pm.
Tales From the South is now looking for submissions for their March taping. Now in its fifth year, "Tales from the South" features true stories told by the Southern writers who lived them. Contributors are from all walks of life and include professional writers as well as those who have never been published. "Tales from the South" is uniquely Southern, in that while we don't require that stories are set in the South (though a majority are), writers must be either originally from the South or live here currently, and the distinct Southern art of storytelling rich in language, detail, and voice is alive in all of them.
They are currently accepting submissions from these Southern states: Arkansas, Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama. Submission requirements may be found here and submission should be sent to Paula at
