[Actionchix] Workshops at Studio XX | Multimedia design on Linux

[.·:*¨¨*:·.darsha.·:*¨¨*:·.]

Hi,

Forgot to mention a couple things about these workshops:
They  take place in Montreal Canada at a feminist media arts centre
called Studio XX.  All the workshops are given by women too...Forgot
to underline that ;-).  Studio xx just set up a Linux lab
with Ubuntu Studio. This program is being supported by the Quebec
Employment Agency...It will be fun.
