Opposed to war?
Opposed to the impending "Iraq Attack"?
Tired of peace signs, gratuitous bodily contact with strangers and the same old
chants in the name of protest?

Then come, join the Carnival..."an absurd response to an absurd war"

The U.S. Art Farce invites you to join us

this Saturday, February 15th, 12:45 p.m. at Compadre's Downtown

for a bit of festive bufoonery.

Join the Carnival in burlesque celebration of bombs, war and...carnage. Ironic and
theatrical, the Carnival for Carnage will accompany the anti-war march and rally
through downtown Athens. Come in carnival costume-- the keywords are
exaggeration and excess. Think bright colors, beads, bizarre headdresses, feathers,
make-up, masks. Think garish, gaudy, glistening, glam. Go rococo! Arrive
extravagant and outrageous.  Come to be seen. Bring instruments, noisemakers and
plenty of friends. Strolling minstrels are encouraged, as are jesters, jugglers, jigglers
and janglers. Bring signs and banners and visual props. Please do not bring "No
blood for oil," "No War" or "Peace" type signs to the Carnival- but please do bring
them to the march if that's your bent. Come to the carnival to satirize. Come prepared
to mock without mercy. To spoof as spectacle. To twist on the twisted. To party in
protest.

See you at the Carnival!
