You have probably heard that I think #HamOnt is a fabulous city. I love this place. There are so many talented people here... It's an amazing time to be an Artist/Musician and Creative in Hamilton. There are resources, networking meet-ups, shows, live events, mentors, festivals and more, here at your disposal just waiting to be tapped. (Just need to find a way to be able to monetize this talent in ways that are win-win). I can't remember a time when we've been able to access so many galleries and live events on any given night of the week. It's exciting to know that the Hamilton arts/music culture is here now! What a great time to be a part of the scene... For instance, I attended 12 events/places this weekend (as I have been known to do from time to time). It's important to me to show support by cross promoting, or attending. Here's where I ended up being (and seeing)... R-Place: The fundraiser in support of Joyce's kids. Woo hoo Rob Leon...
