Tom Tom Call For Interns

August 22, 2012 | By: pbeyer | Tags: No tags where found.

Calling all social media savants, marketing monkeys, musicians, designers, planners, and Jacks-of-All-Trades! This past spring, Tom Tom Founders Fest 2012 launched: two block parties, a month of creative events, and a 60+ band music festival on the Downtown Mall. The theme was Charlottesville as a creative hub for music, art & innovation.

TTFF 2013 is just around the corner, and now is the time to throw in your hat towards the sequel. Two large events this fall, and then the festival in April 2013.
