I will just leave that there with no further comment.
Thank you for your service. This is a good thing, and everyone who downvoted you is personally responsible for this site having gotten worse.
I attended this year, and went googling to see if anyone has had the same issues with her behavior. It is appalling to find that this has been apparently going on for over a decade.
If you are concerned about attending due to a lack of RSVPs here, rest assured we will have a large crowd! Everyone RSVPs on Meetup.com, and most people don't RSVP.

Is it possible to crowdfund the necessary expenses to get this onto Spotify? Are there any significant potential licensing issues?
CEO of the Guild of the ROSE here. This is an excellent writeup, and I appreciate the shoutout. You've correctly identified that our current structure lends itself more towards a university-like environment, but we have always aspired for that to just be one piece of the Guild. We are also interested in being a more open-ended community and providing the things you describe.
Right now, we are limited by funds and time. We have been working on this project for several years without pay, and so we have had to severely restrict what we focus on. If anyone wants to use us for the aspirations outlined in this post, let us know and we will happily lend ourselves to this mission.
What are the dimensions of the frames you used? Or better yet, do you have an amazon link to them?
