Austin Drupal Bash (March 12 during SXSW): Ask an Expert session and party
During the second weekend of March, tens of thousands of tech and creative geeks descend upon Austin for SXSW -- yet this year's conference doesn't offer an official Drupal-focused session. We've decided to take matters into our own hands!
Join us Monday, March 12, to confer, shake hands, and share enthusiasm with those in the Drupal community. There will be experts. There will be camaraderie. There will be beer.
You don't need a SXSW badge to get in, but you do need to RSVP via Eventbrite.
