Over the weekend, I had the great opportunity to hang out with The Garner Circle at their 2nd Annual “F.A.M.E. PR 101″ Workshop. From the scope of fashion, art, music and entertainment, participants got an opportunity to learn the skills to enter the world of publicity, execute campaigns and launch promotional parties.
