The Allied Media Conference is right around the corner: June 17-19. This is the 7th year that hundreds of zinesters, radio pirates, copwatchers, podcasters, community journalists, hip hop heads, librarians and more will be gathering in Bowling Green, Ohio. If you're building alternative media, you should be there, too.

Organized by Clamor Magazine and Allied Media Projects, the 7th Annual Allied Media Conference is the largest gathering of grassroots media makers from all across the country, and it convenes at Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio. The conference features hands-on workshops (from marketing to investigative reporting), group discussions (on topics like hip hop organizing and media justice), film screenings, artist presentations, a large exhibition hall to share our work (displaying the finest alternative media from around the country), and a whole day for educators to learn how to use independent media in the classroom. Set in a small, Midwest town, it's also a space to strengthen our community, meet new people, and enjoy each other's company.
