April Smith of AHA MEDIA is proud to speak at Net Tuesday event for “Online Video for Non Profits”
Net Tuesday or NetSquared Local groups are monthly events that take place in cities around the world. These events serve as a great opportunity to convene local communities to share ideas, learn from each other, and even collaborate on projects for real world impact. These gatherings provide a chance to connect for all those interested in the intersection of social technologies and social change in your local community. Members of local groups represent nonprofit organizations and foundations, government agencies and service providers, designers and developers, innovators and social entrepreneurs.
Tuesday, November 2 · 5:30pm – 8:00pm
W2 Storyeum, 151 W Cordova
FEATURING:
A 30-minute overview of the Youtube grants for nonprofits program, plus a demonstration of some fun features like captioning and translation, annotations and call-to-action overlays.
A 1-hour panel with seasoned experts working in the field who will address the hows and whys of video for nonprofit. How can video help advance your mission? Is it worth your time? Where can you find help in creating a video? How do you promote your video? What makes a “viral video”?

ABORIGINAL CELEBRATION DANCE at Carnegie Community Centre for 7th Annual Downtown Eastside Heart of the City Festival in Vancouver on Monday Nov 1, 2010
Cultural Sharing
ABORIGINAL CELEBRATION
Monday November 1, 5pm-8pm
Carnegie Community Centre
Gym & Theatre, 401 Main
Culturally specific events bring a sense of belonging and camaraderie to an otherwise isolated and disenfranchised Aboriginal population. Carnegie’s weekly Cultural Sharing Program, now in its twenty-second year, offers First Nations people from across North America an opportunity to share cultural events such as Pow Wows, cultural trips, singing and drumming, and to make arts & crafts. This year we have a special Aboriginal celebration with dancers, singers and drummers from the Coast Salish territory.
At 5pm First Nations dancers and singers will perform in the Carnegie gym on the 2nd floor. Come early to get a spot, this will be very exciting. Everyone welcome. Free

Bill Quinn’s Story for 7th Annual Downtown Eastside Heart of the City Festival in Vancouver on Monday Nov 1, 2010
Teaching
MY STORY Bill Quinn
Monday November 1, 1pm-3pm
Aboriginal Front Door, 384 Main
Longtime DTES resident, First Nation elder and artist, Bill Quinn will share his story with us. His story is about the past, the present and the future of his people and his own journey. He tells of the history—of food, medicine, shelter, and how for a number of years now there’s been a downfall and the aftermath is now stuffed into city sidewalks. Ten years ago Bill took an original approach to collage art and he puts his words into pictures. His work layers tragedy and humour into an exploration of his story from buffalo meat to baloney. Bill now talks about a better destiny when we become aware that we all share this galaxy. Come and share in Bill’s story. Everyone welcome. Free
