{local} a Warhol factory party

The East Bay Express and Amoeba music are looking to answer the question, what would Warhol's space look like now? From the Express:
Step into the world of Andy Warhol and his original 1960s New York City Factory. ... an Emeryville warehouse (is turned) upside down for a night of live art, film making, musical performances, and theatrical art forms.
A portion of this event features a re-creation of Andy Warhol's Factory, including a screening of 13 Most Beautiful People… Songs for Andy Warhol's Screen Tests (Plexifilm DVD, out 3/24) and live production of art in the style and process performed by Andy Warhol, including silk screening, filming, and painting.

Velvet Underground Cover Bands will perform --- Dress in your 1960s best!

Visitors are encouraged to bring a can of Campbell's soup for the Alameda County Food Bank.

Admission: Free
It starts at 6, at 1343 Powell Street in Emeryville. More info over here.

Info on the continuing Warhol show at the deYoung is here.
