New media, old media and you
11/20/2008 9:30 AM - 2:30 PM

From effective press releases to Twitter and YouTube, this workshop will introduce the spectrum of old and new media you need to get the word out - about your issues, your concerns, your programs, your work, and your triumphs. If you want to be more effective in getting your message out, "Media Strategies for Nonprofits" can help. In addition to an expert introduction to new media, the day-long workshop includes interactive learning exercises and opportunities to share experiences with other non-profit organizations.

You will leave with:

  • a packet of information,
  • links to learn more on-line, and
  • a list of fellow- participants to facilitate networking.

This workshop will be led by Mary Turck, Editor of the Twin Cities Daily Planet, a project of the Twin Cities Media Alliance. Her decades of experience in working for non-profits in Chicago and the Twin Cities include three years of editing the award-winning Connection to the Americas and www.americas.org.

Where: the public meeting room at Flannery Construction, 1375 St. Anthony Ave., St. Paul

Fee: $100. Lunch and class materials are included in the price of the workshop.
