Cleveland IndieClub FREE Monthly Networking Meeting – April 23, 2006

The Cleveland IndieClub meets every month, free of charge, for those who have the passion for making movies using film or video (whether it is in acting, directing, producing, writing, lighting or any other skill) and are looking for others who have similar interests.

Cleveland IndieClub is administrated by Johnny K. Wu with the collaboration of Bill Johns and generally hosted each month by their members, which offers each an opportunity to create a variety of interest and topic. Cleveland IndieClub official website: www.clevelandindieclub.com
