This is a bit of an out of the ordinary event. Come pay tribute to the late artist, Andy Warhol, as we gather to celebrate his birthday. Every year dozens of people show up to wish him a happy birthday and sometimes there is even cake!
Andy Warhol was born on this date in 1928 and the first year that the cache event was held, when we arrived for our flashmob, we found a party already underway!! We had so much fun celebrating his birthday with the regulars, and they loved that we were there and they invited us back. Cachers have been joining in the celebration since 2014, even in the year that no event cache got posted!
Meet at his marker around 6:15pm. We will mingle until around 7:15. There will be people there earlier, and people there later, but the log will definitely be there from 6:15pm until 7:15pm, so please, if you want to sign it, please be there during that hour!!
There is a webcam overlooking his marker. Please refer to the links posted below for more information and, if you can attend the event, don't forget that you can log the waymarks as well!! Also, if you would like, it would be cool if everyone went to the link (http://www.warhol.org/figment/) and grabbed their webcam image. If you have the capability to do it while there, great, but if not, there is the ability to go back and look up the imagery based on the time, so do take note of the exact time you pose for the webcam!

Please be respectful when parking, and if you are of able body, reserve the closer parking for those that aren't as mobile. There maybe some uphill walking involved. The entrance to the cemetery is on Connor Road, not route 88!!
