Gathering of Digital Storytellers 2006

Our meeting last year in June spurned many conversations, partnerships and collaborations, so we're hoping to repeat the event again this year (2007). We're looking for partners in making this event happen, including hosts, funders, and presenters. If you're not already on the email list for announcements, email Danielle Martin (danielle . martin @ umb . edu). Please let us know if you're interested in making the next Gathering happen!

To check in how the new online portal for community digital storytellers is progressing, go to the working site at StoriesForChange.net. The committee, formed from Gathering participants, meets by conference call monthly and has recently hired FloatLeft and Vernal to plan and build the first phase of the site (thanks to funding from MassIMPACT and partnership with the Center for Digital Storytelling). We'll be reaching out to folks in the next couple months for seed content - digital stories, curriculum, resources, tech tips, and more!

See you at the next Gathering!
