VFX Union Picnic in Santa Monica


At the request of artists on both sides of the border, the IATSE union in Los Angeles and Vancouver will be hosting informational meetings on Sunday February 13. The IA, in sunny Southern California, are hosting an informational picnic in Santa Monica, whereas here in Vancouver with a decidedly cooler clime, IATSE 891′s informational meeting will be held at the Shebeen. This is an opportunity to chat with your fellow artists, compare working conditions, and ask the questions you want answered of the union about the organizing drive, the benefits of a union, employment classifications, etc. Bring along your colleagues, enjoy some food in a relaxed casual atmosphere, and most importantly bring your questions!

Vancouver:
