Congrats to Non-Event as they turn 25! This great article by Noah Schaffer teases a Mandorla Music x Non-Event collaboration this fall. More on that to come but you might want to hold October 17th.

Despite being an organization without a permanent venue, Non-Event is dedicated to presenting music that is inherently as non-commercial as it gets. "If they weren’t doing what they are doing, I don’t know if there would be much experimental music happening here."
