World's Fair Project -- The Second Year -- 2010

In just a couple days the new year begins. During 2010 are goal is to complete the 4 sims that house a major part of the Production Zone, and to expand towards the center of the Fair with additional sims. However, expansion will not proceed until what we have already started is near the end of completion.

So far, most of the construction has been done by only a couple "gridizens."
We need the help of others. Builders or people who want to try and learn how to build in the virtual world, artists to help with textures to represent the many murals at the Fair, and so much more. There are plenty of projects and absolutely no demands. Spend whatever amount of time you can ... try it, you may enjoy it, and what you do will help keep the '39 Fair alive and more importantly, will teach and show others the just how much the vision of the Fair influenced the 20th century and beyond.

If you enjoy the Fair, get involved ... In-World or Real World your help will be greatly appreciated. Contact me for more information at

Happy New Year to everyone.
