In just two weeks from today, Art Happy Hour will take place at its new regular time and venue: the 2nd Wednesday in April, 4 to 7 pm, at the Bedlam Theatre in Minneapolis.

This event will coincide with Bedlam Theatre’s Dyngus Day celebration. What is Dyngus Day? You ask. Well, Dyngus Day is a holiday that takes place on Easter Monday and is celebrated in countries of  Catholic bent, such as Poland (where it’s more properly known as Åšmigus-dyngus). According to Polish tradition, early in the morning boys awake girls by pouring a bucket of water on their heads and striking them about the legs with long thin twigs or switches. Fortunately, I’m fairly sure the Bedlam Theatre does not plan to reprise this particular tradition during their Dyngus Day revelry.

What the Bedlam does plan is to provide plenty of Dyngus Day treats and drinks, good spirits and fun, and much more. Plus, if it all works out, there will be a short Polish Art Trivia Contest (as a sort of test for May’s big trivia blowout), and some lovely prizes for the contest winners.

Come spread the Art joy at the April Art Happy Hour!
