[Openglam_members] Fwd: DPLAfest 2015

Mon Nov 24 15:42:00 UTC 2014

This is in my hometown! But, I have pending conference commitments in
Europe April that week.

I'm shocked this is happening in Indy...not really a hot bed for OpenGLAM...

If anyone does attend (and if my European trip falls through I might go)
let me know, I know that city like the back of my hand..
