DATE-TIME CHANGE!--RMM MEMBERS MEETING MONDAY MARCH 30 AT NEW LOCATION---PLEASE NOTE CHANGE!
2009-03-19

Rochester Movie Makers is moving!! Starting March 30th we have a new meeting location, The Visual Studies Workshop at 31 Prince Street. In addition to a new location, RMM Members Meetings will now be on the last Monday Night of each month starting at 6:30pm.

The Brighton Library has been an excellent meeting location, but reserving the room has become increasingly difficult. To grow this year, RMM needs a specific night consistently. Moving to The Visual Studies Workshop puts us in Rochester, The Visual Studies Workshop is a wonderful space where we can show films easily and meeting on Monday nights gives us some synergy with The Emerging Film Makers showings at the Little Theater which will happen right after our meetings and be just blocks away!

Here are our revised meeting dates for Rochester Movie Makers Members Meetings:

Monday March 30th 6:30pm The Visual Studies Workshop at 31 Prince Street.

Monday April 27th 6:30pm The Visual Studies Workshop at 31 Prince Street.

May 25th 6:30pm The Visual Studies Workshop at 31 Prince Street.

The March RMM meeting had initially been scheduled for March 26th, we then moved it to April 2nd and now its back at March 30th. Sorry for the confusion. Again, booking the Brighton Library room has become more difficult.
