LAST WEEKEND’S ROUNDUP: Teen Summit @ Lincoln Ave School & OKTOBERFEST @ ORNG INK!

PR — Sun, 20 Oct 2013 04:07:43 +0000

Last Saturday, I think is a representation of the spirit ORNG Ink has. We took a time of disappointment, and decided to run with it! OKTOBERFEST was a much bigger success than any of us could’ve ever hoped for. Before the event Ra

We wanted to A) do something that was completely ORNG Ink style B) Everyone of all ages to feel welcome and C) have fun!

At the family and friends party I tasted the BaROCK YOUR SOCKS OFF brew for the first time and it was pretty good. It was definitely more for the person with an extensive beer palette. The bottles looks so cute in the label designed by Laura Campbell. People were very impressed with the finished product. It was unfortunate that Andy, our beer professor and master couldnt make it. We hope that we can work together for a third original brew.

Mindy Fullilove kicked off the festivities by starting the community earth oven fire. Luckily we were able to be joined by Juggla, the brick oven pizza making genius who started to do his thing. Valley Arts was having an event in the Firehouse, so we got some foot traffic. People walked in the gallery and examined the group art show also curated by Laura, tasted the beer and enjoyed delicious pizza.

ORNG INk’s sideyard, often referred to as, Freddy’s Yard was packed with people of all ages. The AIM Squad and some of their friends from Orange High School, Chef Jesse, local Valley artist, Terrie Boddie and his daughter Jai Bronson Boddie (who has a poem in the The ABC Series), Richard Bryant, and more. People were really having a good time.

The weather was perfect to create a cool, indoor/outdoor party and people alternated between both party locales. Everyone that stopped by stayed for a long time. Mindy had the great idea of starting the fire pit and making smores. Then, AIM Squad performed some of their music for the first time, and Soundbox veteran, Sykez did his thing!

The night was truly magical and it was an event for family and friends. Just what we wanted. I can not wait till next year!

Molly, Laura, and I love planning events and once we saw that what we hoped did not work out, we decided to do what ORNG Ink does best, throw a party! We had all this art from past ORNG Ink artists, and this beer we have been waiting for people to taste, a zine release coming & it has been forever since we baked anything in our earth oven…so we decided to throw a family and friends celebration to celebrate the new season.

Laura did an amazing job designing this flyer!

Zine Release: 10.12.13

PR — Thu, 03 Oct 2013 18:39:22 +0000

masConsumption has gone through many changes in the last year. Growing and trying to find it’s identity. We have already released three print zines, and two monthly e-zines. The print zines are quarterly and will be more theme related and released during a related event. (The summer issue was all about fashion and released at the fashion show, and the fall issue is about writing and was meant to debut during a poetry festival).

The upcoming Fall issue is still debuting next Saturday, October 12, 13 during ORNG Ink’s first annual OKTOBERFEST. This is meant to be an event that is geared for our friends and family to celebrate the new season, and get ready for the new. This zine issue features a story anthology called the ABC Series and all about self expression.

The zine will be on sale for $5, and 10% of the proceeds go back into ORNG Ink event planning. Taste our new brew, BaROCK Your Socks OFF! This issue features writers all over the country, and world. The exciting prompt has gotten people excited about the zine and I can not wait for you all to read it! It’s not too late to submit! Go to masconsumption.com/submissions
