Attention Friends and Colleauges

[thetani]

I want to form an artist resource alliance that would have the main objective of helping to bridge the gap of going from an amateur to professional artist by pooling resources and to create new and strengthening existing alliances between artists. The organization’s major function will be to assist its members with leads to freelance contracts, purchasing and sharing studio supplies and equipment, merchandise production, publishing and organizing group trips to events where work can be displayed and sold. However for a group to be effective I need members who have goals and what those goals are and what members need to achieve their unique goals. Overall I would like the members of this alliance to be working on large projects and contracts that build professional portfolios for themselves and for the whole group. So to get the ball rolling I want to conduct a survey and based on the answers of the people who are interested I can begin to get an idea where the true objectives should be. But most importantly I am tired of struggling and seeing my friends struggle to accomplish something great with their talents, so I want to see everyone helping each other succeed. Please give input and comments. These options are primarily what I’m currently interested in but I’m sure there are other areas I haven’t thought of that would be good sources of opportunity.

Please give me your input if you are interested. The only way that something like this can work is if people with similar goals and dedication are involved. But I really feel now is the time to organize.
