Vancouver media mixer on April 18
Vancouver media workers, freelancers and journalism students, come out and join us for a free networking event on Wednesday, April 18 at Shebeen Whiskey House (212 Carrall St.) in Gastown from 6:00 until 8:30 p.m.
There will be free snacks and drinks on offer as you make connections, test pitches, and share advice with people working (and studying) in the media across the city. Mentors from a variety of media outlets will be in attendance.
The event is sponsored by CWA Canada, the country’s only all media union, with 6,000 members at media companies and newspapers coast to coast. CWA Canada is the parent union of the Canadian Media Guild, which represents members at media outlets such as VICE Canada, CBC, and The Canadian Press, as well as freelancers through its voluntary membership program. CWA Canada also has a free membership for student, volunteer, precarious and emerging media workers through its Associate Member program.
This event is free to attend, but please register to reserve your spot on this Eventbrite page.
