International Artist Deadlines & Tourist Expo

Tourism_Expo_JapanThanks to all the diverse artists who combined to make a great set of proposals in time for last weekend’s group deadline. We are looking forward to another amazing year.

On October 24th we will be opening our recruiting seeking skilled guides for the international groups that are selected for WMDF 013. We offer a two week “event planning hothouse, in the cool Hokkaido summer” for any who want to challenge their cultural and logistical abilities!

In the meantime, WMDF will be working hard on bringing next year’s program together, and on taking some big steps towards reaching our “100 Project” target of total countries, starting with our presence at the Tourism Expo in Osaka. Second application deadline for groups we contact through the Expo is Nov 20. See you there!
