    Belly Dance Event Organizers--Vegas Retreat, baby!!

    Oh yea...so the idea sparked and I just can't contain myself. I've been on the phone with my cohort in crime (Tori King, organizer of the Tribal Massive) and we have decided to host a retreat for belly dance event organizers.

    We are in the early planning stages but anticipate holding it in January 2010. We are going to keep it to 2 days and are hoping to make this a roundtable of sorts. We are certain that we have a lot to learn from each other.

    For the moment, what we'd like to know is this:

    a) Is this something you would like to attend?
    b) What topics would you like to see addressed?

    Please give us feedback as we'd love to hear what your needs are and how we can address them. We are going to do this even if it just ends up being her and I treating ourselves to massage and pedicures...LOL. But we'd really love to have some of you other event producers join us for a fun and educational weekend in Vegas, baby!!!

    Hee hee, I just answered this on tribe, but I'll post it here too...

    Topic suggestions:

    1. Pros and cons of setting up your business as a 501c3 non-profit
    2. How to get grants to help fund your events - arts grants, humanities grants, cultural grants, etc.
    3. How to negotiate contracts - with venues, with guest artists, etc.
    4. What event organizers should know about legal issues such as liability insurance, music licenses, etc.

    I'm not an organizer, but I know a couple and have heard them wish for a seminar/workshop that would focus specifically on the ins and outs of bringing ME instructors to the U.S. for workshops.
