That's right. We are currently taking art, music and other creative submissions for ORANJE 2008. Visual artists should email jpgs and accompanying artist bios or media kits to info@oranjeindy.com.

Musicians, bands, DJs and other performers may send Electronic Press Kits or links to web media to ryan@oranjeindy.com. Please put ''Band Name' ORANJE 2008 Submission' in the subject line of the email. DO NOT EMAIL SONG FILES. WE WILL ONLY ACCEPT EPKs, LINKS TO FILES AND/OR WEBSITES.

ORANJE is scheduled for Saturday, September 20, 2008 and will take place at a location to be announced later this summer.

In other news (shoutout to FloriBama Tom!), the ORANJE team will be active this summer as we dot the promotional calendar with various events we will host throughout the city. Last Friday we organized the Print Resources Grand Opening Tent Party, which was a huge hit, as we used The Force (and Cynthia Layne) to keep the storms from crushing us.

Coming up on Saturday, June 21st, we will host the first of three Peel (Your Way to ORANJE) events. The first Peel (1.08), will take place the evening of the 21st at Sangiovese Ristorante on 86th St. We look forward to welcoming guests in the warm atmosphere Sangiovese offers, including the unique back deck experience with a spectacular water view. The evening will be filled with music, great drink specials, food and a great vibe of people. (Note: Sangiovese is going to turn into a hot social spot in the after dinner hours. You heard it here first).

ORANJE is now in session. Hit us up. Volunteer with us. Come see us around town. We look forward to another wonderful year of ORANJE.
