Hendrik Beune, Director of AHA MEDIA gets a new chair!

March 29, 2009 4 comments

In the next series of photos, Hendrik Beune utilizes his new Director’s chair to engage with the Vancouver DTES community in an artistic and very mobile way.

As we started from Carnegie Centre at Main and Hasting in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside ( DTES), it was  quite something to see the varioius reactions on people’s faces as Hendrik rolled by them on his mobile office chair.  The range of emotions ranged from suprised smiles, shocking glances, warm hearted encouragements to mere indifferences as people walked around him.

We are glad that Hendrik has his European savoir faire as he made he way down to one of our community office spaces! 🙂 We created interactive and mobile art in our area !

We, at AHA MEDIA are about creating community engagements and memories that last a long time! 🙂

If there is one great thing about living in the Vancouver Downtown Eastside – you will never completely go hungry! There is always an abundance of bread giving away from the various food lines and churches around our area.

In this photo, Chris holds a bag of bread in the lobby of the Ford Building at Main and Hastings in Vancouver, B.C., Canada.  The rest of the bags of bread sit on top of the mailboxes waiting for other residents to pick them up.
