No meeting Sunday + Green Festival

Hey All!
Just letting you all know there is no meeting this upcoming Sunday April, 5 for Urban Paradise. Elliot and I are both unable to make it but we are still busy bees putting together a portfolio for the city and can't wait to discuss the direction of Urban Paradise at the next meeting. We're on our way to having an amazing logo and feel the time is right to see the bigger vision of Urban Paradise. I'll let you know when the next meeting is.

And now...down below you will see the latest and greatest news about Long Beach's first annual Green Festival May 9th! Everything is still in the works and Elliot (the director) is in need of lots of creative minds and help. See you when we return!
-Rachel
