Hi all,

It looks like we will also be hosting Aurora Thornhill, Science and Exploration Outreach Lead at Kickstarter, on Wednesday. Aurora will be giving a talk about crowdfunding projects through Kickstarter.

We'll try to schedule her at 6pm, so she doesn't compete directly with the SOEX workshop. Exact time TBD...

We were actually supposed to have her over today, but ran into a scheduling snafu (aka Patrik f'd up and forgot to schedule her on our meetup...)

Hi all,

This Wednesday evening, from 7-10pm in the ballroom, Alternative Exposure will be holding a grant information session for new applicants. If anyone is interested in attending to give a short summary of what your group's been up to since being funded by Alternative Exposure, it would be highly appreciated! Also come if you're interested in applying for a SoEx grant - they love the Omni and have been really supportive of our initiatives. Grants are awarded to projects and organizations that do not yet have federal 501c3 status. CyberWizard? Sudomesh? Omni itself??

via https://omnicommons.org/calendar/events/alternative-exposure-grant-information-session -
"Join the Southern Exposure team to learn more about Round 9 of Alternative Exposure, a grant that has helped scores of initiatives like those that comprise The Omni. In fact, several Omni groups have received awards from Alternative Exposure, including Birdhouse, Material Print Machine, Publication Studio, Public School, and Sudo Room! Join us for a night chock full info about how best to secure funding for your independent artist project!

Note: Attending an information session is encouraged but not required to apply for an Alternative Exposure grant. Information sessions are free and open to the public.

More Info about AltEx can be found at https://www.soex.org/alternative-exposure"
