Transcultural Exchange International Opportunities in the Arts Conference hosted by Mary Sherman

This is a great opportunity for regional artists to get a look at international art residencies and to connect/network with other artists from all over the world. I would really like to participate! Although my work will be attending in the We are Having Weather installation at the conference, I am not sure if I can pull together all that is necessary to attend in person ..rides/places to stay/conference and other fees etc.....

SO... I am putting it out there now to you and the Universe........I want to go to this.
I call on the Universe now to line up those manifestation energies and make it happen........
I surrender :-)
If it is meant to be it will be......
