It has been wonderful to witness the arrival of spring, and as such, ORANJE has recovered from the winter blues and bounced back into action for 2004. We are excited to announce and welcome the newest member of the ORANJE family, Laurel Pitt, who will be interning for us throughout the development of ORANJE 2004. She is going to be a tremendous boost for us in many ways, and most of you will get to know her at some point. As things develop, please be sure to introduce yourselves to her as you will likely be working closely with her throughout ORANJE. It is also that time of year that we are scouring the city in search of the perfect location for this year's event, and we are looking at a few sites that are very interesting.

Stay tuned to the site for upcoming information regarding artist calls, sponsorship and event location. The ORANJE team will be bringing a lot of excitement to the art and cultural scene this summer, and we are very anxious to begin on-site development for the show. Hope to see some of you out on the streets this summer as we spread the word and try to earn the support of some new folks this year.

See you on September 18th!
