Saturday, the DIY space the Bubble (810 NE Fourth Ave., Fort Lauderdale) will offer an opportunity for local artists to express what September 11 means to them. Among them will be Erick Arenas, who incorporates a creative element to his interpretation of the mystery frat the Freemasons: His painting includes a paintbrush and pen accompanying the third eye atop the temple. Another artist, Louise Hendry, will wallpaper the bathroom with a collage of eyes think 1984; shell also look into the excesses of our consumerist culture by creating installations that comment on what we eat (junk) and how we make ourselves feel better (meds).

Other artists featured will include Frank Facenda, Adam Facenda, Rama, and Gurty. Bands booked to play the show include Travalonia, Dooms De Pop, Matilda Lights, Low Visibility, and Scattered Light.
