Saturday night’s Art Conspiracy 4: Deconstructed raised $28,000 (and counting) said Cari Weinberg, who coordinated the event. Art Conspiracy raises money for a different charity each year. This year’s beneficiary is Preservation LINK, Inc., an organization teaching media literacy skills to South Dallas school kids from elementary through high school.

With more than a thousand people in attendance, the night seemed far less chilly than the reading on the thermometer. Art auctions alternated with band performances, and a very cool video installation was set up at the far end of warehouse. Tri-cycle races were available for $3, but the people-watching was complimentary. Can’t wait til next year.
