July Celebrates Working Artist Mothers
As multimedia-makers & actors we know all too well the struggle of working at our craft – throw into the mix raising a family. We feature two women who are working at their craft within media and entertainment, creating projects and raising their kids. One just shot in the hit series "ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK", comes out in a feature film with Sylvester Stallone and is raising teens. Another writes for El Diario and just finished a book with two kids under the age of three. Hear strategies from two indefatigable & successful gems from our community and join independent multimedia-makers and actors in theater, film, television, commercials and new media and partake in networking, conversation, wine and food.
