I am looking for a place to stay in DC during the taking action for animals conference - http://www.takingactionforanimals.org - the nights of July 15th, 16th and 17th. The hotel the conference is in is charging $150 per night, so either need about 5 other people to share a room or someone who lives nearby to put me up. I am willing to barter or pay for that.

I am going to have a table for my website - http://www.veganica.com - which is an online gallery for veg artists. That already set me back $300! We will be selling tee shirts and greeting cards, which could be part of a barter arrangement.

thanks!
