Halloween Party and Good Bye
It is with great sadness that I write this note. The UTSA-SL Virtual Campus will close its doors at the end of this week due to a lack of funding. Before our home in SL, including the acclaimed UTSA ArtSpace disappears, come by and enjoy the fantastic art and scenery again at your leisure.
We also will have a last celebration on Wednesday, Oct 26, 2011, from 4-6 pm SLT with DJ Eifachfilm Vacirca on the new halloween area created by Rebeca Bashly. Please join us as we celebrate the work of those who made the UTSA-SL virtual campus the gem that it has become.

My time on UTSA was truly wonderful.I feel lucky that i was part of it and i can never thank you and Igor enough. Seeing UTSA leaving now, makes me incredibly sad ...
ReplyDeleteUTSA provided a platform for a special, very fine selection of works to be enjoyed in Second Life. With UTSA gone, this will now be lacking. Thanks for all the work you put in Con, so sorry to see this end.
ReplyDeleteIt is sad that a place so interesting, that has devoted time to many projects come to an end, hopefully temporary, it could look at other resources to survive :]
ReplyDeleteTo Beca: Having you stay with us has been a privilege and a joy. Igor and you have done so much to make ArtSpace into an amazing destination. Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteTo nordanamjorden: The work was done by so many talented and dedicated people. It is the community that created that beautiful place and it is the community that deserves all the credit :)
To Ux: Thank you for your kind words. I hope that external funding will come through soon. :)
