Hi Alyson

We celebrate creative acts in six arenas of wholehearted living, and have become a community of warm support, connection & joy.

Yes, I basically have at this point. I’m just getting what I need out of it but would like to find some new, renewed inspiration and support (given and taken).

BarCamp is similar to PodCamp. I think you’ve been to one of those. Anyway, ArtCamp was a lot of fun and great to interact with other artists in a learning environment at a local art college. We did a big map of where in town everyone was from, and voted on what we thought should be emphasized in our community: funding, education, venues, etc. The mayor came and spoke; Nashville is known for its music but there is a burgeoning visual arts scene as well.

Oh no! Just that I was not sure about the tech stuff! I am sort of still in smoke signal mode….

Catherine: I’m not sure I like the idea of artists living on the margins of society. I’d much rather that art be seen in the mainstream – part of everyday life. Will it ever?
What about the ENORMOUS sums of money being spent on contemporary art these days by hedge fund managers and others in the rat race? How does that play into community?

Lidija: Thank you for sharing your experience. (And for being the first to quote The Borg on my blog!)

Very interesting, Roopa. If you ever write a post about this – about the struggles of keeping everything in the USA – I’d love to read it.

Excellent work, Mary! Do you have anything online about your club? Would love for you to share a link so we can read/see.

Galia: What do you mean by your last sentence? That I might not publish it?
