Have Fun - Do Good

JANUARY 17, 2011

As many of you know, in addition to blogging and podcasting for myself and others, I'm also a blogging trainer and coach for artists, writers, creative entrepreneurs and do-gooders. I have two blogging workshops coming up, one online and one in San Francisco, that I thought might interest you. I feel like I have a tool to work with.

The majority of our public programs at the Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History are created and produced through community collaborations.
