Blog Out Loud - @ Patio Culture June 4th!

Do you know about Blog Out Loud?




Blog Out Loud is a symposium geared for creative people who want to learn about blogging, gather inspiration and encouragement to start their own blog and meet other creative people. After attending an event in February, we realized how many talented and creative people - interior designers, shop owners, artists, photographers, etc - simply didn't "get" blogging or felt they didn't have time to blog.

We got together with fellow design blogger, Megan Arquette, and formed a panel for the town-hall Q & A event. The goal is simple - to inspire creative people to jump in, start a blog to compliment their professional self and create a presence online. Blogging is a powerful and very rewarding way to connect and share with a community.

We extend this invite to you and hope you can attend. Or please check back in at blogoutloudevent.com when we launch Blog Out Loud TV a few weeks later, featuring highlights from the actual event.




The first event is Thursday, June 4th at the lovely Patio Culture on Abbott Kinney in Venice, CA. All details can be found at Blog Out Loud. It will feature a panel of 5 established bloggers, including Megan Arquette (Beach Bungalow 8 ), Jonathan (Happy Mundane), Audrey (Parcel Post) , Richele Silva (Richie Designs) and Rebecca (loving. living. small and Apartment Therapy).


I am donating this Abstract Boat Print to one lucky attendee from the evening! We look forward to seeing you on June 4th!
