OPEN EXCHANGE is Northern California's premiere holistic resource directory, locally owned and operated since 1974. Our ongoing mission is to provide the Greater Bay Area with new technologies for positive change in the arenas of healthy living, business and recreation, performing and fine arts, and spiritual growth. This publication is your invitation to participate: to embark on an adventure, improve your lifestyle, make new friends, and join a greater community of like-minded individuals.
OPEN EXCHANGE provides direct access to community resources. If you are looking for a specific topic or listing, please refer to the Directory of Experts on our home page. Browse and you'll find consultations, classes, and products listed by category. Please contact each lister directly for details. We've featured numerous "longtime OPEN EXCHANGE listers" over many years–your assurance that they're both accessible and accountable.
OPEN EXCHANGE is also a free speech forum. Now in our 39th year, OPEN EXCHANGE has published thousands of articles by independent professionals, more features by more writers than any other local magazine. In an era of media consolidation and managed news, we're doing our best to preserve a unique outlet for diverse ideas and wide-ranging commentary.
Your support and patronage of OPEN EXCHANGE listers is what makes all this possible. If reading something here makes a difference in your life, delights you or offends you, please email and share it with us, and we'll share it with readers. And please remember to tell our listers, "I found you in OPEN EXCHANGE...!"
