Arts Northwest is holding their conference in Eugene in the days before our gathering. They are extending a wonderful offer to us to attend the Northwest Booking Conference on Wednesday, October 19 and part of the day Thursday. The one day rate is $95.00 and includes two juried showcases, the After-Hours showcases (their version of our PGS rooms), entrance to the exhibit hall and the closing keynote. They will waive their membership requirement for members of Folk Alliance.
https://www.artsnw.org/ is their website - you can find info on the showcase performers, including FW/FAI veterans like Lauren Sheehan, April Verch, Kate MacLeod and Beth Wood and a bunch of other great acts including Cherish the Ladies.
Sam is the person to talk to if you are interested: 360.457.9290 or sam@artsnw.org
And look for Arts NW attendees at our Thursday night events!
