SEA Change Gallery, one of the larger Everett Station lofts, has presented a consistent program of art related to sustainability and social change, what they smartly term "Social Environmental Art". They are now taking their vision on the road as a bicycle tour to the United Nations Climate Change Conference, which begins November 29 in Cancún, Mexico. On they trip they will film a documentary on global warming, one of the largest challenges to earth's plants and animals, with whom we travel and upon which we depend. To celebrate the trip they will hold a gettogether this evening. At SEA Change Gallery, 625 NW Everett, 5PM Free
Antoni Gaudí is one of the world's most individualistic architects. That says a lot in a risk-adverse business that makes large, long lasting and expensive things. The closest might be Hundertwasser. This weekend is a rare opportunity to see on the big screen a Gaudí documentary. Famed Japanese director Hiroshi Teshigahara has made a meditative document of the work, with little narration. The 5th Avenue Cinemas is a great bargain, free for PSU, cheap for others, and free popcorn! At 5th Avenue Cinema, www.5thavenuecinema.org. 501 SW Hall. 7PM and 9:30, Friday and Saturday, 3PM Sunday.

Make The Air Thick is the latest project of Danielle Ross: dancer, choreographer, producer and organizer. Performers are Richard Decker, Michelle Rogers, Vanessa Vogel and Lucy Yim. The piece "examines the quirks, discomforts, honesty, and awkwardness of necessity. Do we truly require or is it an illusion? The evening will examine how structure, control, consistency, inconsistency, lust, progress, approval, and more have seeped into our shared understanding of what we need to feel full". At 534 SE Oak. Reservations 503-449-4373. Friday 8PM, Saturday 4PM & 8, Sunday 8PM. $12-15
