Great news for DCMM & June’s meeting space:

Big thanks to Andy Carvin for making this happen (of note, Andy recently launched NPR’s Get My Vote online video tool — which is dynamite — www.npr.org/getmyvote/).

There seems to be an error in the RSVP link. It goes to a “page not found” page.

Thx Larry for mentioning that; I made some changes and sent you an email directly. Did you get all the info?
Please join us!

When the link didn’t work, I sent the enclosed email to Jill Foster. I assume it’s okay to come?
Hi Jill,
I used to work at NPR before it moved to Mass. Ave. This will be my first time back!
I could not figure out any other way to RSVP for the Media Makers event except to email you. I’m a “watch and learn” person rather than a contributor. I guess if it is full, you will write back and let me know?
Thanks,

Hi! My name is Lauren Johnson and I’m a print journalism grad from Emerson College. I currently work in the non-profit realm but as always, have a fascination for media. Especially multimedia! I’ll check back to see when your next meeting is. Hope to meet you all soon!
Cheers,
