GALAPAGOS ART SPACE WANTS YOU
AT OBAMA'S INAUGURATIONOn January 20th, Barack Obama will be sworn in as the 44th President of the United States.
Galapagos Art Space is organizing a bus to Washington DC and we're inviting you to join us - as a group - to watch the inauguration together on the National Mall.
How?
We're going to split the cost of a bus to Washington DC and back. It comes out to $73 per person.
When?
We'll leave from Galapagos Art Space late on the night of January 19th and arrive early in the morning on January 20th. We'll watch the inauguration and spend part of the early afternoon in DC, and then return to Galapagos Art Space on the evening of the 20th.
What to expect:
1) To join two to four million other Americans expressing their elation, joy, and hope for the future of our country.
2) Galapagos Art Space will plan everything. We're good at this. We'll even tie all of our mittens together so no one gets lost.
3) That it will be cold. That it will rain. That it will snow. That there will be a flood. That there will be a hurricane. That you'll lose your scarf. That your feet will be cold. That you'll have a runny nose. But will you care? No. You won't care, because you'll be there. And because we'll have brought extra scarves, good hats, and warm shoes!
If you'd like to come with us to Obama's inauguration, email us at inauguration@galapagosartspace.com and we'll send you the link to buy tickets.
We're very excited to be planning this and we think it will be both fun and a grand adventure.
