Since it's Christmas, let me point you in the direction of a shiny, [not so] new boutique. Sautrelle is located at 1A White Street in Woodbrook, and they open Tuesday to Saturday from 11AM to 6PM. They're doing a fancy shmancy kinda personal shopping thing, so you gotta call in advance (868.622.8777).

The boutique's owned by DJ Ravin, one half of the Amateurs, so you know they got their shit together.

Zen Rooftop approved.

The public is invited to a discussion about the recently concluded Jeans Art Project. This event, which is open to the public, will be held at The National Museum of Trinidad and Tobago at 5 p.m. on Thursday 5th April, 2007. The event will be moderated by artist, critic and writer, Christopher Cozier. Mario Lewis, who curated the event, is expected to present an overview of the project and each participating artist will talk about their experience in the event.There will
also be a screening of a documentary video.

If all this cricket is boring you to bits, be sure to check out the Jeans Art Exhibition on at the National Museum, starting today:

On Wednesday 21st March 2007, the exhibition “Jeans Art” will open at the National Museum and Art Gallery at 6:30 p.m. The exhibition will feature the results of a project sponsored by Radical Designs in which the fashion house commissioned several local artists to
make contemporary artwork from a pair of jeans. As part of the Radical Designs philosophy, the merging of business innovation and creative enterprise can be viewed as an ideal means of harnessing a positive relationship with the community at large.
These works will be auctioned at the opening of the exhibition on Wednesday evening, and the proceeds from the auction will go the Shaype project of the Rotary Club of Maraval. The Shaype (School for Holistic Action for Young People’s Empowerment) Project has become the umbrella under which the Rotary Club of Maraval provides several programmes, including music tutoring and family counseling services, to address some of the critical social problems facing the youth. The artists who will show work at the Radical Design’s Jean’s Art exhibition 2007 are:

Dave Williams , Paul Kain, Lesley-Ann Noel, Sarah Chong Sing, Sonja Dumas, Suzanne Nunez, Richard Rawlins, Terrance Smith, Christian Alexis, Rhoda Gayadeen, Jacelle Alexander, Gabriela Joseph, Kwynn Johnson, Lauralin Maynard
