AHA MEDIA is luckily very open minded and we always do our job to the best of our ability 🙂
Below is a pair of boxer briefs that were checked in with us! The owner assured us that they were very clean! 🙂
Since the Work Less Party events are always a costume party – the followoing photo shows a man dressed up as “Drunk and Arrested B.C. Premier Gordon Campbell in Hawaii” complete with Beer can. What a parody!
Below is a photo of fantastic drummers enticing people to dance to their beats

AHA MEDIA was pleased to attend What about Love?: Out of the Rain Group Exhibition
AHA MEDIA was very pleased to attend the
What About Love? : Out of the Rain Group Exhibition
Opening: Friday June 5th, 2009, 6:00pm-10:00pm.
June 5th to 28th, 2009
Artists: Sue Blue, Wendy Chew, Bob Fiddler, Angel Gaeta, Ray Grabelle, Victor Jean, Montana King, Priscillia Tait, Garnet Tobacco, Adam Warne, Johnney Watts, and others.
Artists from Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside show new work produced during this fourth annual Out of the Rain program.
Out of the Rain supports artists who face challenges to maintaining regular art practice but who, in spite of these challenges, persevere to make art as a means of survival and self-expression. This year’s twelve artists were provided with art supplies and a street level arts studio to make work for the group exhibition. These artists were selected from over 50 interested and qualified artists.
This year, Out of the Rain is made possible through financial support from Edgewater Casino’s Social Responsibility Fund (through the City of Vancouver), Direct Access Grant funding, a generous contribution from John Casablanca Institute (via the Community Arts Council of Vancouver), and the provision of subsidized street level work space (Flack Block, 175 W Hastings) thanks to The Salient Group.
We would also like to thank Opus Framing and Arts Supplies for assistance with supplies, and the DTES Community Arts Network for early project support and partnership
AHA MEDIA wishes to thank
Lianne Payne, Ali Lohan, Quin Martins of Gallery Gachet for leading the Out of the Rain project and for such a welcoming opening and reception 🙂
Lani Russwurm of DTES Community Arts Network for his ongoing support 🙂
Tom Quirk – for documenting the Opening Night 🙂
