AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Sorry folks;

I've been out of pocket lately. I just today finished moving into Denver.

I also totaled my car on Monday!

What a bitch!

Anyway, I'm back.

I'll try and catch up this week.

Jeff

From Australia to Africa, Asia to America, Africa to Europe there are many projects planned for the day, indeed the week. From Bees in Louth to Arcobats in Kenya, from Radio broadcasts on Lieth FM to a Global Drumming for Peace ring, from a live broadcast of "All you need is love" to a prayer in Kenya, From A World Community Arts Week in Newport to a grand concert in Belfast, the growing list goes on and on.
From the social networks of Myspace, Youtube and Facebook come projects as Happy Postcards, Green Circle and How to make a paperboat.

It is not to late late to get involved. Have a look at the website.

January's Class A Projected Image Competition earned me an "Honorable Mention" ribbon for the attached digitally edited photo which I call "Beach Chairs" at the Greater Lynn Photographic Association. Mike Goodman, MNEC, of New Hampshire was the judge for this month's event. Mike is a member of the Gateway Camera Club and has won many medals locally and worldwide in International competitions. I think this is a fun looking photo and I had it printed on a computer mouse pad. It looks great!
