    1) EXPO VIDEO!

    We're still catching our breath after the overwhelming task
    of staging the Eighth Annual Expo for the Artist & Musician.
    We will have a full update on how the event worked in the
    coming weeks. In short, however, there was music, dancing
    and singing, workshops, antics, PEOPLE of every description,
    and connections in abundance.

    You can view a short video about the event, by SomArts Media
    mogul George Aguilar, below. Thanks George!

    start your own co-op or are interested in what a co-op is, this
    conference is for you. Come learn about co-ops, the issues they
    face, and how to further the co-op movement in the larger social
