Participating artists include: Duffy, Holly Harnisveger, Natalia Mirskaya, Jason Christenson, Jay Alprin, Fred Bell, Deborah Brooks, Desiree Fonesca, Allan Thompson-Wallace, Frank Korb, Jonathan Ellis, Carol Rode-Curley, Rich Garza, Kat Vento, Nicki Garmroth, Olivia Tharpgeorge, Grace Rogers, Kira Strain, Marion JA Vieux, Sandra Lomali, Marcia Hero, Curtis Miller, Ian Lzard, Aoiala Luck, Terry Taylor and Allie Fritsch.
