Seven local bands played at a benefit concert at the South Park Recreation Center, 1141 Massachusetts St. to an all-ages crowd.

Skateboarders and their supporters gathered Saturday night to raise money to improve and maintain the Lawrence Skate Park at Burcham Park, Second and Indiana streets.
Turning Lawrence into a skateboarder 's Mecca is no easy task.
Bent Tuttle, Moraga, Calif., senior, and manager of Let It Ride, a skateboard shop at 609 Vermont St., said that the skate park was important to skateboards in Lawrence because they had few decent places to skate.
Tuttle, who has skated for 11 years, said that when skateboarders used parking lots or sidewalks around businesses they usually were told to leave.

The crowd swelled to 100 people at its largest, but 120-140 people rolled through the concert during the day, donating a total of more than $700.
"Skateboarders know that if you skate somewhere, they're going to tell you to 'Get outta' here," Tuttle said.
However, businesses do not usually tell skateboarders where they
"Let's get the wood, let's get the tools and get to work."
can go to skateboard,he said.
and options are limited.
City ordinances do not allow skate-boarders to skate in the street, and sidewalks are often uneven and ill-suited for skateboarding, Tuttle said. The sidewalks in downtown Lawrence and on the KU campus are good for skating, but it is not allowed.
A city ordinance prohibits anyone from skateboarding downtown from Sixth to 11th streets and from skateboarding by businesses on Vermont Street.
The ordinance also prohibits skateboarding on Jayhawk Boulevard from West Campus Road to 13th Street with a 1,000-foot corridor on either side, which includes areas that skateboarders traditionally used, such as the area around Wescoe Hall.
One of the few options left for skateboarders is the skate park.
The city agreed to let skateboarders in Lawrence set up several ladders last
year but would not fund the project. This sparked the creation of the Lawrence Skate Park Association.
"If we want to build a half-pipe or want to put in a light, it will be hundreds and hundreds of dollars," she said.
"Our prime focus is to raise money to build a bigger park," Tuttle said. Jessica Miescher, Grand Terrace, Calif., junior, helped organize the benefit. Miescher said the park needed many improvements and would be costly to maintain.
Dan Hernandez, Lawrence resident and skateboarder, said he had helped to maintain the skate park, but that he was not satisfied with the current efforts to improve it. So, he started another organization called Skaters of Lawrence.
These projects are two long-term goals, Miescher said, but the funds are mostly needed to maintain the plywood ramps that are already in use. All repairs and improvements to the park are made by private individuals using money gathered by the association.
Tuttle agreed that the park had potential and said that a more professional skate park could draw skateboarders not only from other cities but other states.
"People come from all over," Tuttle said. "Even as small as it is, when people hear there's a skate park in Lawrence, they come here."
Another benefit concert is slated for May 10 at the same location.
Barn exhibit showcases student art
By Andrew Humphrey Special to the Kansan
Outside a barn, a chicken pecked at a discarded cup of red wine. Inside, a dog ran about among painting and sculpture, artists and artwork.
Such unlikely scenes were bound to occur at the Barn Show, an exhibit that showcased the work of about 25 different artists in a red barn located four miles north of Lawrence.
Paintings, drawings and photographs lined the walls of the 75-by-200-foot space located at 1970 E. 1600. Pieces of driftwood with drilled holes hold stalks of prairie grass ran down the middle of the room. Above, two huge balloons with faces painted on them hung above the heads of the gathered crowd, occasionally swinging about wildly in the wind.
The exhibit, which was from 3 p.m. until after midnight Saturday, featured these works as well as live bands and performance art. According to one of the show's organizers, Coby Brown, Salina senior, 95 percent of the artwork was done by KU students. He said the show gathered steam as students heard about it.
"People showed interest. People showed the desire to do it, and that's been the driving force," he said.
Brown, who is studying printmaking and sculpture, came up with the idea for the show.
He said that the limited audience typical art shows receive made him think about creating something different.
"I like going to an art gallery opening," he said, "but people who aren't really familiar with the arts and any of that sort of stuff may not want to go to a gallery. There may be many reasons, I'm sure. I wanted to find a place that was large, that could hold a lot of people, and something that was blue-collar, that had maybe a bluegrass surrounding. I originally wanted a warehouse."
Brown then ran into a friend who lived in an apartment connected to the barn.
"I don't remember how I got on the topic, but I told him that I wanted to have a large show in a warehouse, in the downtown area, something local, something that everyone could share," he said. "And it just snow-balled."
Brown and other artists met several times to plan the event, and he said each participant in the show helped contribute to the funding of the event.
He said the result was a successful show with an estimated audience of more than 500 people in attendance by 11 p.m.
Angela Denning, Baldwin senior,
said that she enjoyed the exhibit.
"I think it's a nice chance to see other people's artwork all together at once." she said.
Jen Graham, Colorado Springs,
Colo., junior, said she wished that
more people had come.
