About Me

on april 7, 2004, the reconstruction room was born. its mission is to promote a performance space where artists are free to take risks, challenge dominant power structures, and fuck w/accepted modes of expressions. we, the people of the rec room, seek to create a supportive community of artists & renegades where the emphasis is on the promotion & distribution of poetry, music & performance. the final goal of the rec room is to build a public space & audience for events that may otherwise only occur in our living rooms. inherent in our mission is a commitment to love & justice. we're also down with peace & harmony. What: the Reconstruction Room Readings
Organizers: Erin Teegarden, Della Watson
