The Northeast Network is a collaborative effort between the Hamilton Arts Collective and the people of the surrounding community: performers, volunteers, technicians, and venue representatives. Our goal is to increase the amount of entertainment and cultural events happening in our section of town, through cooperation and sharing of resources, information, and events booking.

Our next public meeting is scheduled for the afternoon of Saturday, 20th December, from 2pm until 3:30pm at the Hamilton Gallery. We'll be holding a debriefing of the unprecedented successes of the Gypsy Cab outdoor show series, plus hearing from guests about what they have planned for 2009.

All are welcome, and all are invited! This is a potluck too, so feel free to bring something to share!
