Seattle Youth Media Workers Unite January 30

Seattle Youth Media Workers Unite January 30:

Via Digital Stoop. Follow link for full story.



As a person who deeply enjoys sharing the power of digital media with young people, it’s been an honor to work with the good folks at the Seattle Digital Literacy Initiative. They’re highly committed to teaching youth in the Seattle area about the importance of digital storytelling and how young people have more entry points into utilizing media today than ever before.

On January 30, the SDLI folks in conjunction with the forward thinking people at Brown Paper Tickets are putting on a Youth Media Educators Mixer at 7pm that is meant to get all of the various youth media teachers and facilitators around the area in one room to talk shop, share resources and get to know another. How often does that happen around these parts? Hardly ever. Possibly never. So if working with young people and teaching them anything from radio, audio, video, social media or anything media related gets you excited, then this event is for you. I’ll surely be there and look forward to meeting new people.

Please RSVP with Sabrina Roach, Brown Paper Ticket’s Radio/New Media Doer at sabrina@brownpapertickets.com or by phone at 206.218.6416.
