Aug 25 | 'Cheap Thrills' @ Anacostia Arts Center


Join Anacostia Arts Center for the opening of Cheap Thrills! Curated by Molly Ruppert, this exhibition will fill the Center with original work. Check out over 75 pieces of affordable art while listening to an electronic soundscape from Ian Dansey and a set from ska band Eastern Standard Time (bring your dancin’ shoes).



More about Ian Dansey
Part engineer/technologist, part musician, Dansey will draw from his jazz and improvisational background to create an electronic soundscape performance that harkens back to the wonderfully strange electronic works of the mid-20th Century.

More about Eastern Standard Time
Washington DC’s messengers of the Caribbean Beat sound, Eastern Standard Time brings together top musicians from the Jazz, Soul, and Caribbean music scenes of the nation’s capitol. Merging rhythms from the islands with melodies from Birdland, their sound is like no other.
