Learning, Freedom & The Web Open Lab Discussion at W2 Woodward’s Open Lab for 7th Annual Downtown Eastside Heart of the City Festival in Vancouver on Wednesday Nov 3, 2010
Open Lab Discussion
LEARNING, FREEDOM & THE WEB
Wednesday November 3, 11am-2pm
W2 Woodward’s Open Lab,
250–111 W. Hastings
Learn about the open web, how it affects how we learn and explore local solutions such as creating a free community wifi for the DTES. The web surrounds us with a massive and remixable tapestry of perspectives, facts and data. It gives us the freedom to learn whatever we want at our own speed and in our own way. It lets us become our own teachers. Fundamentally: the free and open nature of the internet is revolutionizing learning. Come for a discussion that is also digitally connected to a live dialogue from Mozilla Foundation’s Drumbeat Conference in Barcelona. Free (optional lunch $5)

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

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
