Saturday Sundae

Hey folks! Its Saturday Sundae! This will be a weekly update or a whole bunch of opportunities for us black/brown folks to revel in our beatiful culture and celebrate our ancestry.

This week, my source for most of the listings is the Chicago Reader. If you ain't know, the Reader as its called, is a great source to get a heads up on the arts scene in Chicago. Its a great FREE weekly paper that you can get in those periodical dispensors downtown and sometimes in the front of most bookstores. Check it out! (There is also an online version, link provided above)
