Night Photography Workshop
Hey MPA,
We'll be meeting on Thursday October 19th in the student center by the fireplace at 9:00pm to do some night photography around campus.
For those of you who just got your hands on a digital camera, this is a good opportunity to practice working with the manual shooting modes (and see how much fun they are) while someone is around to answer any questions that arise.
Don't forget your tripod, (and gloves!)
MPA Exec
*Although this is a workshop as we will have some members on hand to answer questions, everyone is welcome to attend, free of charge!

Photography Exhibit - The Century Project
The Century Project is composed of photographs of naked women from birth through to the age of 94. Each photograph is accompanied by a statement written by the subject onher life experiences or on what being photographed did for her. These women are all shapes, sizes, ethnicities, and have a wide variety of challenges that they have faced, such as eating disorders, cancer, sexual abuse, physical abuse and disabilities. In addition, some of the women do not claim to have endured any hardships, and simply wanted to be photographed in their birthday suits as a declaration of the level of comfort that they have with themselves.
Tens of thousands of people have seen The Century Project, at universities and in churches, often at the request of women's health groups. Don't miss it. This is its only tour stop in Canada.

Volunteer/Job Opportunity
The Jewish Student's Association and the Gerontology Association are putting together a "Senior Prom" for the residents of Shalom Village, the local Senior's home. We are looking for a student to photograph the event.
The event takes place at 7pm on March 23rd, and is a great cause which would look excellent on a resume. We are willing to pay the photographer but would prefer if someone was kind enough to volunteer their services, since it is a charitable event. So, if anyone is interested in helping out and having fun, please email Alicia Katz at aliciaka@hotmail.com.
