Hey all,
Here's a first draft of a preliminary poster to get the word out! It's
designed to be printed on tabloid (11" x 17") paper:
In other news, we still need:
- *Point-of-contact* for the *Bake Sale*, and *more bakers*!
- To sort more things around Omni Commons to sell at the* rummage sale*
.
- *More musical acts* / *performances* -- contact *Dragon* at *arktivist(a)gmail.com
<arktivist(a)gmail.com>* (or ask me for Dragon's # !)
- New ideas from *everybody*, including what each collective can
contribute to make our 9/19 rent party a success.

It would be great to make a simple, beautiful
flyer to promote the event
both online and in-person - however, my graphic design skillz are pretty
weak. Could anyone help with this? (cc'ing Nic who just created a beautiful
brochure for sudo mesh :)
