FENGI PRESENTS A FIELD TRIP

KULTURSCHMETTERLING OUTING #1:
THE SAINTS TO SINNERS FIELD TRIP


Saturday, September 24, 2005 - 4 PM to 7 PM

The S2S field trip will visit two of Chicago's lesser known landmarks in the South Loop.

First, we visit The Pacific Garden Mission (646 S. State St.) for a live taping of UNSHACKLED!, a radio drama about people getting saved by Jesus which has aired for the last 55 YEARS.

You can learn about Pacific Garden at hereand listen to archived episodes of UNSHACKLED here.

Then we stroll to Cal's Liquors and Bar (400 S. Wells St.). It's lively mix of loop professionals, bike messengers, art students, activists and chronic alcoholics defies hipster/yupster balkanization. Enjoy cheap drinks and stick around for the punk rock if you want.

More about Cal's here.

Anyone can take part by meeting us at Pacific Garden at 4 PM for the 4:30 taping, or coming to Cal's around 5:45 PM.

There's only one rule: Respect The Mission. They've helped the homeless for 128 years, so though the preaching may make us cringe, reserve derision for the post show gathering so they don't throw us out.

4 PM - rendezvous at Pacific Garden Mission (646 S. State St.) for Unshackled!

5:45 PM meetup at Cal's Liquors (400 S. Wells St.) for drinks.
