Alternative Media Expo '08: It's a wrap, and a success!

The '08 version of the Alternative Media Expo has wrapped up and was a great success! We're proud to announce that over 650 people attended the Expo and, with exhibitors and their guests added in, we're estimating that the show had approximately 900 people pass through! We thank all the attendees for their support and we hope you'll again treat us with your presence next year!

We have to thank all our sponsors: Humid Beings, Dirty Coast, the Charitable Film Network, Static TV, the New Orleans Craft Mafia, ANTIGRAVITY and Defend New Orleans, as well as special guests Josh Neufeld and Deborah Cotton, the Contemporary Arts Center, Juan's Flying Burrito, NOLA Rising, Bernard Pearce, all of the AG crew, Gambit Weekly and, of course, all our exhibitors!

We're already thinking about AME '09, so get ready!

In the meantime, check out some photos of the Expo. If you have photos, please let us know!
