Creative House of Lancaster

Next meeting Thursday 18 March 2010 at Annie Bailey’s. Grant Rissler from MCC will be there to talk about the group’s work all over the world and answer questions about how the Lancaster for Haiti donations will help out Haitians in need.

The Eris is pretty slick

The Eris is pretty slick

HTC Eris Vs. the iPhone

Anne finally got a new phone. No, not the iPhone. But she did get a pretty sweet Eris by HTC. So far it looks like a great phone and a good solution for those Verizon folks reluctant to make the switch to AT&T. The gauntlet’s been thrown by Anne so watch for a head-to-head, battle of the phones between the two of them in the near future. Can’t figure out how to do screen captures on the Eris yet so you’ll just have to wait until Anne figures that out.

Forum on PA House Bill 300

Max will be attending the Forum on HB 300 tonight at the City Council Chambers, Southern Market Center tonight from 7pm-9pm. Join him if you can and show your support for the GLBT community. Look for video from tonight’s event coming this week.

From the Facebook event page
On Monday, March 8, 2010 The Lancaster City Human Relations Commission is sponsoring a community discussion about Pennsylvania HB300, which is proposed legislation to amend the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act to extend protections to residents who are discriminated against on the basis of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. This forum will take place from 7:00-9:00 PM at the Southern Market Center, City Council Chambers, 100 South Queen St., Lancaster, PA. The public is invited to attend. For more information on the forum, please contact Linda Martin at 717-393-2883.

First Friday at The Infantree

Max stopped by the Infantree Friday night for the Help Haiti Heal: Poster Show and caught a little video. The guys over there always put together great shows and this was no exception. And it was for a good cause, the Haiti relief effort. Max couldn’t get the video cut together for today’s video cast (#MaxFail) but will post is as soon as it’s ready.

From TheInfantree.com
We have asked designers and print makers to create limited edition posters. They will be sold for $25 each at the gallery and online. The show will benefit Build-A-Bridge, a Philadelphia-based non-profit arts organization that uses the power of the arts to bring hope and healing. Its Haiti response includes art therapy to help children who may not have the emotional outlets or tools to cope with the tragedy.
The show will also feature 20×30-inch, large-format black and white portraits taken by Lancaster photographer Matthew Lester on trips to rural Haiti. Lester has made six trips to Haiti over the last 10 years. For Lester, the portraits are an opportunity to show a perspective he is not seeing in mainstream media coverage of the earthquake’s aftermath.

Picks of the week

Anne: Double Twist – syncing for the rest of us non-iPhone users.
Max: FAIL (no pick this week)
