The annual Estrojam festival has launched a new-look Web site to spotlight its 2005 incarnation.

The Estrojam Music and Culture Festival is an annual not-for-profit, community-based event that features internationally acclaimed and emerging musicians and artists, educators, activists, and community leaders in dozens of events, including concerts, workshops, panels, and a film festival presented at Chicago's best venues.

A benefit for the US Campaign for Burma and the Chicago Abused Women's Coalition, this year's event is slated to run September 21-24. Hopefully this won't conflict too seriously with your plans to celebrate the autumnal equinox.
