Chicago Promoters' Ordinance: An Open Panel Discussion (Video)



On Dec., 20th, 2008, JaGoFF was invited to screen their documentary "Chicago's Promoters' Ordinance Kills Independent Music" at the Chicago Art Department. Following the screening was held Q&A panel discussion in regard to the proposed ordinance, it's implications and current state.

All those in attendence represented many various disciplines in Chicago's Independent art community, and it was wonderful to see all of us coming together under one common cause. If you have not seen the documentary, you can find it here. If you have already seen it, enjoy the panel discussion.
