SIFF VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Have fun serving popcorn and candy and get free movie tickets! Seattle International Film Festival is coming to Shoreline for the second year this May 26 through June 3!

The Foundation is handling the concessions and needs volunteers to work for two films (about 4-5 hours) on these days and then you will get two tickets to SIFF films here at Shoreline. You also need to attend a short 30-minute orientation at the theater on May 23 or May 24, time to be announced.

Concessions shifts are generally noon to 5 p.m. and 5 to 10 p.m. on weekends and Memorial Day and from 5 to 10 p.m. on weeknights. These may change slightly depending which day you work.

The tickets are good for any film shown on our campus on any of the nine days of screenings. (You need to work a different time than the film you want to see plays). See the schedule of films here.

Concessions include popcorn, candy, soda, and water. The separate bar includes beer and wine. You must be at least 21 years of age with an ID to serve alcohol.

Happy GAAD!! Celebrate with us, Thurs., May 18

Dear campus community,

Today, Thurs., May 18, is the 6th annual Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD). Our Accessible IT Workgroup would like to invite you to take some time on today to stop and look at your own work and see how you can help the campus become more accessible.

Seven years ago, two people working in the accessibility space said, “There should be a day when everyone around the world gets a chance to learn a little about accessibility and share with others doing the same thing.” This is how GAAD was born. The first GAAD day only had a few events but was very popular and soon spread to many countries.

Check out the progress at the Global Accessibility Awareness Day website, where you can see all the events that have happened in the past and will be happening this year.

Please consider attending a webinar hosted by SBCTC and presented by our sister college, Bellingham Tech from 2-3 pm today. You can join a group viewing of the webinar in Room 1501 – complete with home baked cookies! – OR you can also watch remotely by Joining Us in Collaborate.

We hope you all can join us from wherever you are and take some time on Thursday to embrace accessibility and all the good work being done in the field today.

Thanks for your continued partnership!
Shoreline Accessible IT Workgroup
