Share OWS

[NOTE]: Occupy with Art is a proud participant in the new NYCGA Arts & Culture initiative Share OWS! Share OWS has been developed by Antonio Serna and refined/approved by consensus in the A&C Working Group meetings. Antonio sent this message today:

SHARE OWS is a new program from OWS Arts Network that facilitates the sharing of content being produced within the OWS movement. What does that mean? Anyone working within OWS/NYCGA is free to re-circulate art, writing, photography, poetry, and other content produced within the OWS movement and for the movement. Read more about it here: http://artsandculture.nycga.net/share-ows/

We need your help: If you are a member of a working group, collective, affinity group, or thematic group within OWS/NYCGA, please contact us so we can add you the SHARE OWS list: nycga-arts-and-culture-org@googlegroups.com or reach out to Arts & Culture on the A&C Forum (nycga) or here, at the 917 Wall Street Arts Google Group. You can also help by spreading the word about this program and asking other groups to participate!
