We’re bringing XOXO back this August 22–24 to Revolution Ha ll in Portland\, one last time. \;\n \;\nAfter the last XOXO in 20 19\, we had decided to start wrapping things up\, planning for one final festival in September 2020. Then obviously the pandemic arrived\, derai ling our plans entirely\, and turns out\, postponing them for almost fou r years. \;\n \;\nSince 2019\, XOXO sat unfinished in our imaginat ions\, while we’ve watched the world continue to become a more challengi ng place for independent artists and creators. Many in our community are out of work\, crushed by widespread layoffs across the media\, games\, and tech industries. It feels like many technology companies and platfor ms are doing everything they can to hurt artists instead of supporting t hem. \;\n \;\nMore than ever\, we need community and solidarity\, to hear each other’s stories\, to experience and share our work with eac h other\, to come together and organize to make things better.\n\nImport ed from: http://calagator.org/events/1250480989 URL:https://2024.xoxofest.com SUMMARY:XOXO 2024 LOCATION:Revolution Hall: 1300 SE Stark St.\, Portland OR 97214 USA SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
