The 11:11:11 UpStage Festival needs your support! <br>
<br>
// <i>please forward widely - appologies for x-posting //</i><br>
<br>
UpStage is a web-based platform for live, collaborative performance,
presenting an annual international festival of cyerformance by
artists from around the world. The platform is free and open source,
and it's free for you to attend the festival - online, wherever you
are. UpStage is currently unfunded, with everything done by
dedicated volunteers. <br>
<br>
We are now working towards the 11:11:11 UpStage Festival, and we
warmly invite you to contribute to our donations campaign. This is
to enable us to provide appropriate technical, artistic and
organisational support to the wonderful artists whose work has been
selected for the festival (for more information about the festival
and the artists, visit <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://upstage.org.nz/blog/?page_id=2350">http://upstage.org.nz/blog/?page_id=2350</a>).
<br>
<br>
If everyone who reads this email contributes just 11 [insert your
local currency here] we will easily reach our target of NZ$10,000
(that's about €5000). Whatever amount you are able to donate will
make a difference - whether it's 11, or 111, or more, all donations
are gratefully received. <br>
<br>
<i>** If you're a New Zealand tax payer, you can claim a tax rebate
on your donation - just ask us for a tax receipt.</i><br>
