I think I'm gonna have to make the trip!

I am excited to be a part of it. I hope to see you there!

Poop. I could have combined it with a visit to my sister in Vancouver... but she just ran away from home and moved to Toronto!!

That's only 3 hours away! ...I'm considering...

Pasher is awesome, Deborah is fantastic at paint AND henna, and you have not had a henna class until you've taken it with Neeta!

Looks like a great one guys!! Be there or be square!!!!!

I'm really looking forward to it! It's going to be a fantastic conference focusing both on henna and paint. There seems to be a lot of artists who transition from one to the other, and I really think this conference will benefit them/us (me!).
But it's gonna be great for beginners on up to advanced. Kristal...we are so close for you! Just a drive, and not a flight to get there Btw, I am down near Mt. Vernon, WA...if you are ever this way, give me a jingle.3
And Idaho is just a longer drive
Even think about the train. Kent Station is nearby to the venue, and Seattle's stations are not too far away.
This month we will be getting more details out about the classes and area hospitality (travel/dining/etc).

The one thing I'm not keen on is that it's a weekend - I loved Vegas last year when it was during the week, and I got to take gigs the weekend before and after.

Justine, if I do go out there (with my kit) I'll let you know!!

Do you know what hotel rates are going to be and if there's a conference rate?

well weekdays aren't good for people who have day jobs, weekends aren't good for people who have gigs. no winning there

the hotel rates are approx. 75/night (dbl occupancy) and 2 queen beds I believe. The link to the room rates is on the venue page of the site. There are other lodging options nearby (even across the street).
Conference fee's are in the pdf registration form available on the front page www.bigraindrop.com

Weekend workers vs M-F workers are the bane of my existence. M-Fers (the ones who don't do event stuff on the side) just don't get why I can't rearrange my schedule and be free on weekends.

Anyway.

I did try to look at the PDF registration but the link isn't working, and I didn't see prices listed on the venue page (unless I missed it, rates aren't listed...and special rates aren't always listed online, hence why I asked!)

argh! I was making a change the other day and didn't realize I muffed up the registration form. I have the form on my office computer and will change it tomorrow.

I'll post when I make the website fix.

I think I'll be there!!!

Karen! Talented and lovely lady! Fantabulousness to see you here!!

I think it sounds like a pretty darn good conference. With Pashur as well? Def. good deal....

Welcome to Face Paint Forum and hope to see you posting!

That's a good point! Taking a train... I loooove train rides. I figure I'm going to jump on whatever opportunities I can afford and its a great time for in September... I hopefully will be washed out by the state fair and need a boost of creativity!

If you register with the conference venue you will want to be sure to let them know you are with the conference as the $75 rate is for conference attendees.
