[sudo-discuss] Omni's first Collabazaar, this Saturday from 12-8pm! - Call for Collaborators!

[Jenny Ryan]

Hi all,

We'll be hosting our first of a potentially bi-monthly pop-up bazaar
featuring local artists, artisans and craftmakers this Saturday in the
entrance hall. This is a last-minute call for collaborators - if you're
interested in running a table, playing music, contributing art/crafts, or
something completely different that would contribute to making the event
awesome, please get in touch by sending an email to
collabazaar at omnicommons.org

I'm planning also to set up a table for info about the Omni. If you'd like
to add literature/info/flyers about your collective, a class or event, I'll
be setting up a dropoff spot behind the front counter later today.

The mission of these Collabazaars is to create a sustainable model for
fundraising for the Omni's monthly expenses while simultaneously providing
local makers in our community with income and visibility to support their
continued creative / artistic / crafty / culinary endeavors. It's something
many of us have been talking about for awhile now, with limited volunteer
energy to execute - but even if the first one is small I'm sure we can grow
this!

Collaborators confirmed so far:
* Francisco Jimenez, Tucan Vinegars: Selling delicious homemade Costa
Rican-style vinegars. Free tastings available!
* Abby Normal Art by Antoinette Gaggero
* Liberation Food Coop: Fair trade, fresh-roasted coffee, hibiscus
lemongrass kombucha, and a variety of teas to sample.
* Radical zines available by donation

Please share the facebook event widely:

Flyers will be available tomorrow afternoon at the front counter of the
Omni if anyone would like to help with promoting!

Love,
Jenny
