InSOMAnia is almost sold out...the workshops live on!

[Jason Manley]

Congrats everyone, it is going to be a wonderful show. Due to the limited space for the event, it will be selling out. This news means that the 2007 workshops will continue as scheduled in Florence Italy this spring.

The instructors start arriving in about 48 hours for InSOMAnia. Friendly faces have already been seen around the San Francisco. Can you feel it? It's almost here. :)

Thanks so much for the support. We could not do these events without you all. It is the community of conceptart.org that makes it possible to bring together so many talented people from all over the world..artists of all levels of skill. We are stoked, and can't wait to see everyone!


Best,


Jason Manley

hurah!!

[boogz]

That's great news!
Sadly enough I couldn't come to the Insomnia workshop, due to way too expensive tickets and all (I'm just a student, sue me), so hearing that the workshops will continue for *at least* one more time made me happy since I haven't been to one yet and would REALLY love to participate.

Anywhoo, Florence sounds like a great idea and I hope to see you all there, but before that I wish all of you who are going to the workshop in a few days a lot of fun!

Great news, keeping the workshops alive really motivates me to work harder! I envy you people that can attend to this one, i truly do!

CA has been on such a roll lately, December 2006 really marks it down with all the awesome art and the workshop. Don't stop, people!

WOW! Italy!! That would be an awesome trip! Just curious, why Italy? how do you choose the location?

[Interceptor]

You're thanking us?!

I was worries this would be the end of my professional art education!
Thank you all for putting these on.

[wil.whalen]

I hope I can make Italy too.

Looking way too forward to insomania.

[Jason Manley]

We choose whatever place sounds best...rich in art, culture, and vibrant creative life...those are the primary reasons for choice of locale....so far we hit prague, amsterdam, berlin, san fran, austin, montreal...all creative juicy cultural centers

seattle and london are still being considered for future events...as are some other exotic spots. we will play it by ear...Florence will be next, that is the current plan. Someday perhaps Shanghai, Mexico City etc...who knows.

Right now, it is all about Insomania and San Francisco. No one here will even talk to me about italy. :)

P.S. I'm also stoked as hell, my adventure starts in about 26 hours when I need to drive to fly out. This is going to rock the earth.
