The Fourth Annual Expo for the Artist & Musician took place May 4, 2003, at Cellspace in San Francisco.
  • 2003 DIY & How-To Articles

  • Attending Groups A-Z

    Approximately 900 individuals -- artists, hobbyists, arts-service workers and the curious -- came through the door for a minimal $2 donation.

    Inside they encountered 90 arts organizations -- schools, service groups, production companies, nonprofits, small businesses and more -- and made personal, creative and professional connections of all sorts.

    2004 marks our FIFTH anniversary -- and we have big plans to expand the event beyond a one-day happening into a long-term community-building service.
