    Monks & Punks is a "collection of cultural juxtaposition," or, an exhibit of drawings and paintings by local artist/monk Luke Shaffer. Live music from The Pachisi Champion and the Nicotine Fits with Dee Jay Tanner & DJ Juicebox.

    Shaffer was recently the focus of a two-part installment of KRCC's The Big Something. Here's a little from KRCC's Noel Black:

    On the surface, Colorado Springs Artist and Orthodox monk Luke Shaffer would seem to be the embodiment of spiritual contradiction. On the one hand, he’s a bona fide tonsured monk in the Orthodox tradition. On the other hand, he’s a child of American pop culture who continues to draw and paint the rock ‘n’ roll icons of his youth alongside the monks and icons of his faith.
