AHA MEDIA is very pleased to welcome The Sennnheiser Sound Tour as they visit W2 in Vancouver‏

W2 Info night June 4, 09 55

W2 Project located in the Woodward re-development site.

The Sennheiser Sound Tour involves two teams traveling across North America for the summer. The teams are comprised of surfers, models, gamers and photographers. Over the Summer they hit 30+ cities across the U.S. and Canada, bringing the reknown professional sound equipment direct to the people.

The tour is documented with social media tools, with  travel adventures uploaded to SennheiserSoundTour.com. They are taking time out to visit W2, an inner-city media centre that has piqued team members interest in how community involvement has developed a state of the art media centre at Woodward’s. W2 is an example of cultural industries supporting job creation for at-risk local youth.
Members of the W2 community team will be on hand to answer questions about the 8,000 sq ft television, radio and new media studios that open winter 2010.

This is an opportunity for the Sennheiser Sound Team to develop, explore and understand the long term planning needs of this important project.

The tour begins at 3:30pm on Friday August 21 at the corner of Cordova and Cambie.

Below is a photo of AHA MEDIA enjoying gelato from the Gelato Shop at 307 Cambie by Cordova. Notice the Woodwards Buildings in the background! 🙂
