10 a.m. – 4 p.m.: "Capturing Community Voices Workshop"
Cairo Public Library

Join Wave Farm Artist-in-residence Laura Hadden and Tennessee Watson for this public workshop focused on the concept of vox populi in association with WGXC's Town Recorder initiative. Pre-registration is required, and limited to 12 participants, for this free workshop. Email Galen Joseph-Hunter gjh [at] free103point9.org, or call (518) 622-2598 to secure your spot.
The "Capturing Community Voices Workshop" will assist participants in collaboratively designing and producing a short radio segment featuring interviews with members of the local community edited into a collage of voices responding to a common question. Participants will learn how to formulate questions, conduct interviews, and be guided through computer tutorials and techniques that enable them, with facilitator support, to edit their own segments.
