In the spirit of strengthening the Wellesley-MIT alumni community and encouraging multimedia project collaboration and creative exchanges between the two institutions, WAAM unites Wellesley and MIT alumni and friends together monthly at local events. These events include the following:

• Bi-monthly WAAM Team Leadership meetings to discuss current projects, brainstorm new workshops and events, and strategize WAAM's development and outreach.
• Creativity Support Group discussions: new project brainstorming and informal project critiques.
• Project-oriented workshops to create arts and crafts, write poetry, etc.
• Coffee shop socials and dinner discussions featuring guest speakers currently working in multimedia, technology and creative fields.
• Group outings centered around local community events
  (e.g. local Open Studio events, gallery exhibitions, digital installations and other multimedia-related events).
• Professional development and technical training workshops

In addition to these events, WAAMers are periodically invited to functions (e.g. theatre productions, cultural festivals, art exhibitions, and creative workshops) coordinated by the local non-profit organizations we serve.

We encourage you to peruse the WAAM What's New page. For more information on upcoming events and workshops, please visit our WAAM e-groups website. Here you'll find up-to-date postings by WAAM peers on local socials, potential project collaborations, job openings, and industry news.
