STE EMILIE SKILLSHARE IS LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS TO HELP WITH STUDIO MAINTENANCE AND CHILDCARE
Ste. Emilie SkillShare is a group of artists and activists, primarily
people of colour and queer people, committed to promoting artistic
expression and self-representation in our communities. We are
building and running an art studio for people to learn new skills,
share their skills, and create art in the spirit of revolution and
anti-oppression (anti-racism/sexism/classism/ homophobia/ transphobia/
ableism/sizeism/etc). The space includes a silkscreen studio, a
darkroom, a craft and sewing room, a kids' room and a 'zine
distro/library. We host open studios (Saturdays) and workshops, open
to the public, for cheap. We are located in St. Henri at 3942 St.
Emilie and on the internet at http://snap.mahost.org/distro.

Vote YES! for QPIRG - click here for more info
Check out our mandate, our working groups and our recent events...Click on the title above for more information about why you should vote YES! Find testimonials from students and community members on what QPIRG has meant for them, a list of all the student and community groups that started out with us, some financial soundbites about QPIRG, and more...The QuestionDo you agree to raise the Quebec Public Interest Research Group (QPIRG) at Concordia’s fee levy to $0.31 per credit, thereby continuing to support the increased demand for the services of QPIRG, the birthplace of the People's Potato, Sustainable Concordia Project, le Frigo Vert and Right to Move, home to 15 active working groups, and the provider of valuable student resources and programming. This increase would represent a $0.01 increase for Arts & Science, Fine Arts and Independent students, a $0.11 increase for Engineering and Computer Science Students, and $0.31 for John Molson School of Business students, thereby equalizing the levy paid by ALL undergrad students. The fee would continue to be fully refundable and collected in accordance with the university tuition billing and refund policy, starting September 2007.
