ARE YOU A LEGO ARCHITECT? COME PLAY WITH HOMELESS CHILDREN!

Did you know: at least 1 out of every 24 Massachusetts children is homeless at any given time? An even higher proportion of Massachusetts children experience homelessness over the course of a year, for a total of at least 82,000 homeless children and youth in the Bay State.

Horizons for Homeless Children is seeking 150 volunteers to interact and play with over 500 children living in 55 family, teen parent, and domestic violence shelters in Greater Boston. A commitment of 2 hours a week for 6 months is required. We offer daytime and evening shifts, so there is likely to be one that fits your schedule. It is a rewarding and fun experience for everyone involved. The next training session will be on March 3rd and 4th 2008 from 6:00 - 9:00 pm. Please call 617-445-1480 for more information, or visit www.horizonsforhomelesschildren.org.

Attention Artists! Stop the Orphan Act!

By weeklydig on Mon, May 5, 2008 12:23 pm

Two bills were submitted to congress at the end of April — one to the House and one to the Senate — called the Orphan Works Act of 2008. Congress is looking to have this act passed and signed into law by George Bush by June 8, 2008, less than two months after it was introduced.

In a nutshell, this act may put many of you creative people in a tight spot when it comes to copyrighting your images and jeopardize long term royalties.
