I agree with Melinda I would love to take a reasonable train home as I am in the subs also. Beside that I would say any night next week would work except Weds.
What time is every one thinking?

Hey, y'all.
So sorry I never followed through with the last thing-- life got pretty crazy. I fly back to Chicago tomorrow, so Thursday evening could work for me, but I'm guessing it could be easier to work w schedules if we do it next week.

So... Who's interested in meeting at the cultural center to get some stuff settled? and what days/times definitely work for you and which definitely don't?

My schedule: I can be free any evening EXCEPT Tuesday, the earlier in the evening, the better-- i just don't want to have to catch a super late train back to the burbs if i don't have to.

Okay-- who's next?

Did we ever settle on a time to meet up or how did the meet up go at the Cultural Center? Excited about getting this going!

Whoops. Looks like I missed out on something. Well, regardless, I can't wait for this to go down! Woot!
Comment by Melinda Guerra on September 28, 2009 at 2:27pm
How does Monday, October 5th sound? I can do anytime on that day.
What looks like a good time for the rest of you? I'm still thinking at the Cultural Center, unless someone has a better option.
Comment by Carlo Navarro on September 16, 2009 at 8:20pm
Hey All, excited to be a part of this. I'm all in with helping coordinate/plan.
Comment by Melinda Guerra on September 16, 2009 at 7:11pm
The first week of October sounds perfect, and the Cultural Center is in the middle of the city, so it seems like a good middle point.
Until then, I'm going to make up some fliers and just keep emailing friends and asking the people I know to ask the people they know if anyone can help be a part of this.
Keep spreading the word...
I'm guessing we can agree on a day/time when we get some more people who are interested
Comment by Melinda Guerra on September 16, 2009 at 6:53pm
Hey there
I'm hoping to get a group together to meet downtown soon-- perhaps at the Chicago Cultural Center? (it's on Michigan and Randolph)
I'm doing my best to network people and try to get people to get in touch with other photographers, make-up/hair artists, people to donate paper and ink, people with ideas for locations or people who could really use the gift of a picture. Even people who would just love to meet up with us and talk with people, offer a listening ear or some hope or something.

I'm thinking we could get together one of the last days of the month, perhaps, and have a brainstorming/planning meeting? Would any of you be available/ willing to do that and ask friends to do the same?
