Hey SNMA and AMSA folks, Our first planning meeting for the Cultural Arts Show (tentatively entitled "Harambe") is set for next Monday at 12:15 in Mayo B646. A slight shift in focus, which we think will make planning for the show easier and more enjoyable: We will be inviting members of the local community to perform and display their artistic talents and experiences in addition to the folks here at our med school. Since many of us have local connections, we will be seeking your input on whom to involve in our 1st Cultural Arts Show on Sat., April 5th, in the brand new Coffman Theater, a 430-seat multi-media theater that has a much more intimate atmosphere than either PWB 2-470 or MT 2-650. As we mentioned at our last meetings, planning for the show and fundraising will require the help of all SNMA and AMSA members as well as other interested classmates in order for the show to be a successful annual event that brings together (Harambe) our entire medical school along with the community in which we belong. Please try to attend this first meeting as we will start dividing up duties into three committees (Performance/Tech; Fundraising; Advertising). It will be important to see how much wo/manpower we have -- the more people we have involved, the less work for each of us and the more successful our efforts will be. If you are unable to attend the meeting, please email Quy or Cuong (Coo) to tell us which committee you want to join prior to the meeting, if possible. We'll send an email over the weekend to let you know what ideas and the overall vision we have so far. Please feel free to provide input before the first meeting. We look forward to your ideas and suggestions. Quy and Cuong _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?
