Hey alex,

I added you as I thought you might be interested in what I am doing.

Six_events is a worldwide performance project, looking for the art in the everyday. So far, there will be hundreds of group/individual performances in Spain, America (13 states), Egypt, China, India, Greece, Japan, Italy, England, Scotland, Ireland, Finland, Portugal, Germany, Serbia, Canada, New Zealand, Georgia, Latvia, Australia and Malaysia across the last week in January (21st-27th)

Document your performances with pictures/films/poetry/drawings and they will be exhibited in London in February.

If you are interested in taking part and would like me to send you a reminder nearer the time about this then just send a blank email to six_events@yahoo.co.uk

thanks for reading :)
