DESCRIPTION:Get Involved!  Attend the FAULT LINES GENERAL MEETING:  THURSDAY, March 2 
 at 7 pm  At the Bay Area Independent Media Center (2940 16th St. Suite 216 
 @ Capp, one block from 16th/Mission BART)  Are your Thursday nights 
 painfully free? Do you look at the news and wonder why the issues you 
 really care about are never mentioned? Are you finally ready to do 
 something about it? Come on down to the Fault Lines general meeting and get 
 started!  Fault Lines, the news magazine of the San Francisco Bay Area 
 Independent Media Center, aims to give all communities the opportunity to 
 actively participate in the collective process of media production and 
 distribution. Previously a monthly newspaper, Fault Lines is shifting to a 
 bi-monthly news magazine format. Thursday, March 2 is the next meeting, and 
 also the first for the next issue- a great time to step in and start 
 helping out.  Become a part of making Fault Lines happen by volunteering as 
 much time as you have to offer. We are a 100% volunteer operation and can 
 use all the help we can get. If you’re not sure what you can do to help, 
 just get in touch with us and we’ll plug you into something that suits 
 your availability and interests. Experience is helpful but not required- we 
 offer skill-share sessions to get you going in everything from Graphic 
 Design to news writing.   We need help in every aspect of the paper:  
 Distribution: A great way to get started is by handing out Fault Lines to 
 people and stores in your own community, helping distribute to our regular 
 places, or by adding a prominently displayed rack of Fault Lines to your 
 shop/club/backyard/store/co-op.   Editorial: Work with and find writers to 
 develop cutting edge, socially conscious features for Fault Lines. Wield 
 the mighty red pen and help copy-edit each article before print, help 
 conceive themes for each issue and create hilarious, attention grabbing 
 headlines and captions.   Design:  Use Quark XPress or Adobe Illustrator to 
 lay out the news magazine. Skill share workshops lead by experienced 
 graphic designers teach newcomers the programs and skills to lay out the 
 pages.   Art: Submit your cartoons, photos, or illustrations. Help us 
 secure original artwork for stories and work with photographers.   
 Advertising: Our super-discount prices practically sell the ads themselves, 
 but Fault Lines still needs help paying the bills each month.  Tell all 
 your favorite stores about advertising in a publication they can feel good 
 about.   Public Outreach: Establish and maintain relationships with 
 community organizations and non-profits, act as a community representative 
 for Fault Lines, and help get people hyped about Indy Media. Also help by 
 tabling at events or and set up raging benefit parties and shows.  For more 
 information go to http://www.indybay.org/faultlines or contact 
 sfbay-print@indymedia.org.  A collective that cares:  Working with the 
 Fault Lines collective is a great way to network within your community, 
 meet like-minded folk, and learn valuable media skills. We are the people, 
 we are the media, and we are dissenting from the ground up!   \n
