POSTPONED - Emerging Media Workshop with @ChrisCloud - April focus: Tumblr - Pre-registration required

What's Tumblr? Do I need to get a SnapChat? Why is Facebook asking me to boost posts? 

These questions and more will be explored at the Emerging Media Workshop with @ChrisCloud -- a monthly workshop designed to help you navigate your way through the online frontier of social networks and platforms. #EMworkshop will help you cultivate the communities you want to grow for your nonprofit, small business, and/or personal projects.
 
Emerging Media Workshops are held on the second Thursday of every month from 6 to 8 p.m. Each workshop will have a different area of focus -- from Snapchat to Pinterest! Workshops start with an overview of the topic followed by a related exercise. The last half will open up to discussion about any emerging media topics or questions you might have. 
 
April's focus topic: Tumblr 
 
We emphasize interaction and the exchange of knowledge between participants. Because of this, space is VERY limited! We ask participants to pre-register so as to guarantee that space will be available. There is a sliding scale of participation fees. Participation is free for all Daily Planet advertisers, writers, and interns. Contact Bruce Johansen to request a scholarship:brucejohansen@tcdailyplanet.net
 
Bring your laptop—wi-fi is available.
 
Questions? Comments? Idea for topics? @ChrisCloud on Twitter

Our location: 

  • Many of our classes and Newsroom Cafes are held at the Twin Cities Daily Planet office (though many are not—see each class listing for location information).
  • Our office is centrally located, but it can be a little tricky to find if you don’t realize that we are in the Wells Fargo bank branch at 2600 E. Franklin Avenue in Minneapolis.
  • Please note that the Daily Planet is located in the same building as it’s always been, but has a new office space! We’re now in the front of the building, not the back, so enter off of Franklin Ave. (not the parking lot.) 
  • Free parking is available in the bank’s parking lot.
  • If you’re traveling by bus, we’re right off the 2, 7 and 67 lines.
  • If you’re coming by bike, there’s a bicycle rack just outside the building.
  • To get to our office, ring the bell at the front door, shared with Triangle Park Creative.
