Birthing the Dodekababie!

Hey Doodles!

Haley Here,

I hope everyone’s weekend is going superb. Just wanted to share a few things.

Last night the Atlanta art Cooperative DODEKAPUS!!!! Had their “Collective Concious Event”. And man….was it MIND BLOWING! There was a bike race, interactive art, circus performers, thai food, bands and pretty much a clusterbunch of mad art! It was an emotionally charged spiritual celebration of every person that put their energy and love into that building. I am honestly proud to be a part of the dodeka fam. Below are some pictures from our family and the event.

Just like all the people in Dodekapus inspire me everyday I get to go to my job, Young Blood, where hundreds of artists also inspire me with their amazing work. I am so stoked on the artists we have here. Here are some that we have at Young Blood that I am in love with !

Be the Change!

Hey Guys! Haley here, I wanted to put a quick update. :)


Young Blood is an amazing gallery and boutique and I know it has changed the lives of not only artists but the people who have interned/worked there.

Young Blood strives to help its community and show love to the people in it :)

I know that recently Young Blood has supported Atlanta's MondoHomo!
An amazing Homolovin festival for Atlanta to show the ultimate pride! MondoHomo has workshops, shows, and builds unity down in the dirty south. For more info for this years MondoHomo you can visit their facebook ! http://www.facebook.com/MondoATL

Another great community building showdown that is comin to down is the " Be the Change Youth Convergence". The Georgia Peace and Justice Coalition alongside the AFSC is putting on thsi convergence to promote peacemaking, sustainability, and radicalsharing. While honoring people of allbackgrounds and faiths the convergence strives todemonstrate a way of life that is an alternative to materialism, militarism and racism. For more information about the convergence you can go to the GPJC web site :
