Dear friends,

We are writing to you in solidarity as working artists with information about an upcoming Artist's (or "Artist" or "Artists" or "Artists' ") Strike, a word we employ as both a noun and a verb. The strike, which was proposed at an Occupy Wall Street Poetry Collective meeting several weeks ago, will be held on January 13, 2012 in solidarity with the Occupy movement. This date happens to be a Friday the 13th as well as just a few days prior to OWS’s four-month birthday!
