Dear friends,
Hope everyone is well. Here’s a quick Cannery Works newsletter update as of June 11th, 2007:
MEL & EL STRIKE AGAIN!

SIX STATES, SIX MONTHS: BOONVILLE USA
Photographer Timothy Briner’s project BOONVILLE USA has raised more than a third of the total travel budget! Starting August 1st, Tim will be photographing six different towns named Boonville in six states over a period of six months, documenting the changes happening in small town America today. $100 can pay for three days of food, travel and lodging while on the road.

THE CANNERY WORKS FESTIVAL OF EMERGING FILMMAKERS UPDATE
The compiling, filming, and editing of the first ever Cannery Works Festival of Emerging Filmmakers – featuring seven top short films from college filmmakers all across New York state – is complete! Screening dates will be announced for the fall. Presenting sponsors are welcome and needed. To become involved or recommend a sponsor, send us an email or call 212-594-6464.
BETA TEST THE NEW CANNERY WORKS WRITERS SPACE
Sample a new free service for members of Cannery Works: The Cannery Works Writers Space. Put some of your original writing online – prose, poetry, screenplays, and plays – and get feedback and collaborative help. If you’re stuck with a story or need a fresh pair of eyes to look at something you’ve written, this is a good service for you. After giving it a try, send us your feedback so we can improve it and better serve the needs of the artistic community.
That’s all the main news from Cannery Works at the moment. To help us continue and expand our support of emerging artists and the community, please consider making a tax-deductible contribution as a member of Cannery Works today. We recommend 100.00 a year if you can afford it, or 40.00 a year if you’re a struggling artist. Small sums from everyone really add up fast and make a world of difference!
Thanks again and until next time, best wishes from all of us at Cannery Works –
Spencer Chandler
Artistic Director and Founder
