POPRALLY PRESENTS AN EVENING WITH THE RAINCOATS SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 2010 8:30–11:00 P.M. THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART

PopRally invites you to a special performance by the legendary post-punk group The Raincoats, presented in conjunction with a pair of MoMA exhibitions featuring influential women artists. Kathleen Hanna will kick the event off with a DJ session. Pictures by Women: A History of Modern Photography presents a selection of outstanding photographs by women artists, charting the medium's 170-year history. Counter Space: Design and the Modern Kitchen recognizes the prominence of women who have critically addressed kitchen culture and myths. Both exhibitions are associated with MoMA's publication Modern Women: Women Artists at The Museum of Modern Art. The Raincoats, formed by Ana da Silva and Gina Birch in the late 1970s, created a sound, inspired by punk and rock music, that became a significant source of inspiration for future generations of feminist musicians. Kathleen Hanna was a founding member of Bikini Kill, co-creator of the zine Riot Grrrl, and lead singer of the dance-punk band Le Tigre. From 8:30 to 10:00 p.m., enjoy an exclusive exhibition viewing and open bar during Kathleen Hanna's DJ set; The Raincoats' performance follows at 10:00 p.m.		TICKETS ($23 in advance, $25 at the door) are available online. Please note that ticket sales are limited. You must be twenty-one or older to attend this event. Special thanks to Sud de France Wines. PopRally is funded by the generous support of Jerry I. Speyer and Katherine Farley.
