Thanks to you, we are celebrating our 8th year. Our 2017 theme for the Geek Art/Green Innovator's Festival-- GA/GI-- is "Love, Peace and Robots," is meant to be balm for the soul, especially for those of us who find the current times uncertain. This is year when its good to remind ourselves to be kind to other people, to our environment, and, in fact, be kind in our general thoughts so we keep our bearings during a time of technological revolution. We at GA/GI believe the world can always be better,and despite constant change, brighter, because so many of us believe that it can happen and are willing to do the work to make it so.
