May 28, 2015, Thursday - Help The Loft Celebrate 40 Years with a Lipdub Video!

Time: 5:30pm-7:00pm

Location: The Loft Literary Center, at Open Book (Performance Hall), 1011 Washington Ave

Help the Loft celebrate 40 years with a lipdub video!

Note: An RSVP to this event is appreciated, but please also fill out the sign-up form linked in the "Tickets" field.

Do you like the Loft? Do you enjoy lip-syncing and grooving to funky 70s tunes? Do you want to help the Loft celebrate and promote its upcoming 40th Anniversary?

If you answered 'yes', then we have an opportunity for you.

On Thursday, May 28, from 5:30-7 p.m., the Loft will be filming a lipdub video* to the Earth Wind and Fire song Shining Star, which came out in 1975, the same year the Loft incorporated.

We want to have as many people involved as possible. Here are the requirements:
 + Ability to be at the Loft from 5:30-7 on Thursday, May 28 (Optional Social Hour w/liquid courage and refreshments starts at 5.)
 + Ability to familiarize yourself with the song enough to successfully lip-synch
 + Strong desire to wear any clothing vaguely from the 70s era, even if it's just a scarf around the neck
 + Eagerness to groove your heart out on camera in Open Book
 + Good attitude and flexibility and desire to have fun

If you have questions, contact Tanner at the Loft at tcurl@loft.org.

Fit the requirements above? That's great. Sign up, and we'll be in touch with further details.

*A lipdub video is of a long line of people lip-synching and dancing to a song. Here's an example: https://youtu.be/ZPjjZCO67WI although our lipdub video will be a bit lower tech and more homemade.
