AHA MEDIA has a new intern – Johnathan Jagt! :)
Introducing AHA MEDIA’s newest intern – Johnathan Jagt! You may have seen him on the site singing Lady Is a Tramp. Due to his huge involvement in our area and and eagerness to learn how to do our type of Vancouver Downtown Eastside Community engagements – we have invited him to be a part of our team! 🙂 We will be peer training with him our knowledge base while we grow together as AHA MEDIA 🙂
Peter Davies, Johnathan Jagt and Hendrik Beune
AHA MEDIA has a deep affinity for our area, the Vancouver Downtown Eastside as we work and live here!
We want to see the positives such as cultural and technological advancement events and functions get highlighted while reporting on the ongoing changes that can affect us directly such as Poverty, Homelessness and Gentrification. We are very much close to the ground level on many topics and situations through our new media and social media channels.
We are glad for our strong networks though the online and community communities.
Thanks to everyone ! 🙂

What a blessing to be able to hear such amazing music and see fine musicianship during an afternoon jam at Carnegie Centre!

Cyrous Sharifpour, Owner of Waves Coffee at Main and Cordova speaks about helping in the Vancouver Downtown Eastside (DTES)
Vodpod videos no longer available.
In this video, Cyrous Sharifpour, Owner of Waves Coffee on Main and Cordova ( across the Vancouver Police Station ) speaks about his Coffee and how his shop wants to help our Downtown Eastside neighborhood! 🙂
For more information on our DTES area, please read the wikipedia link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downtown_Eastside
Cyrous is a warm hearted and gregarious man who makes sure that everyone in his coffee shop is having a wonderful time!
In this day and age, it’s quite rare to see the owner step out from behind his desk to come out and engage with his customers! 🙂 What a welcoming feeling that is to feel valued as customers! People wish to connect to something local in our area and Waves Coffee at Main and Cordova is it! 🙂
Waves Coffee sponsors local non profit groups from here in our DTES neighborhood to bigger venues such as our recent “Women in Film Festival” at the VanCity Theatre where our mentor Mo Simpson was honored with an award from Kodak to a Large well attended multicultural event at the Plaza of Nations where over 5,000 cups of coffee were poured to support the arts and shows!
It”s such a great feeling knowing that there are still people like Cyrous and places like Waves Coffee that help the local scene 🙂
As AHAMEDIA are emerging new media and social media citizen journalists, we are glad to know that there are places in our neighborhood that have Free Wireless from 6AM – 12 midnight everyday! We are a very mobile and multimedia production team, and we are glad that a warm place with great customer service and coffee is open for people like us!
