Christmas Caroling! "The best way to spread Christmas cheer, is singing loud for all to hear." Saturday, December 15th in Market Square, I invite everyone to come out for some late evening song singing. We will meet at 9pm beside the big Christmas tree in the park. Feel free to bring instruments or even just a stick to clang on trash bins. We will play a few sets throughout the Market Square. Sheet music will be provided. Let's share the joy of the coming savior with the night owls of our city! If you have any questions or ideas, feel free to email me (Austin Ferber) ferberak@gmail.com

  

Marie Alcorn was voted to be on the new shepherding team slate for 2013-2015. There are two unfinished slots which will be appointed by the Shepherding Team (per the Bylaws). Thank you, Marie!

If you have never seen us perform, MDPL conveys the warm inviting spirit of the holidays with respect to the diversity of our audience. This performance is appropriate for all ages. Audience members are encouraged to bring pillows as seating is limited. 

Tickets may be purchased online, via KnoxTix at http://tinyurl.com/cctualb, Adult tickets are $13, Children/Seniors/Military are $8.50. If available, tickets at the door will be $15 & $10
  


UT's Clarence Brown Theatre presesents the classic "A Christmas Carol" from Nov 29th - Dec 23rd. Buy tickets here.

 

Make sure you get this month's Amplifier. 

 The Amplifier exists to give voice and economic opportunity to those living beyond the margins of our community and to address the social issues that affect them. 

 The Amplifier is Knoxville's first street paper.  The Amplifier will be available for $1 from vendors stationed through the city and can be found daily at the following locations: downtown on Gay Street and on Market Square; in the Old City at Central and Jackson; and on campus at Cumberland and Seventeenth and other locations to be determined.

 

The Amplifier features articles, poems and artwork primarily written or produced by local homeless and transient persons and distributed by homeless vendors. Street paper publications build a bridge between the very poor and the wider public by helping people to understand the issues and the personal stories of those on the lowest rung of the economic ladder. Accordingly, the paper will not only provide personal stories and tales by those among us who find themselves homeless, but will also explore social justice issues, local politics related to homelessness and poverty in detail by local, national and international columnists.
