Have you always been interested in making films but
couldn't get started because you didn't have money, experience, equipment, a
crew, actors, money, props, location permits, make-up, money, or money? Us too!
Hi, we're a group of local yokels with varying degrees of degrees. We all have
one thing in common, we love to have FUN and we love to make MOVIES! We're
looking for some other people around town who, in the words of Bryan Mills,
have a very particular set of skills (we'll settle for enthusiasm in a
pinch).
Acting, writing, camera, sound and lighting tech, SPFX, production,
animation, story boarding, wardrobe, editing, set design, props - you name it,
we'll exploit it.
We have a MeetUp™ group with the same name (Amateur
Filmmakers of Alaska) and encourage you to join and come discuss the
possibility of collaborating on some awesome and sometimes terrible short films
that will earn you neither money nor the respect of your peers.
Please come and
join us as we trudge the happy road to creative silliness and sometimes seriousness.
At the Listening Post we believe listening with our full attention and compassion has powerful results.
There is a level of dignity we can offer as one human being to another: We can listen. Everyone's story is different. Some stories are difficult, some daring, some happy, some sad. But there is something we all have in common - Being Heard Matters.
Everyone deserves to be listened to. That is what The Listening Post is here to do - honor you, offer you respect, and hear your story.
Are you are looking to move out, get your own place, leave shelter or change your housing for any reason? Join us at Housing Lab. Work one-on-one or independently in our weekly work space!
Housing Lab is a weekly program designed to help you look for housing, apply for housing, and learn more about Anchorage's affordable housing options!

How did a young Frenchman provide the best hope for a people in quest of their cultural identity? When Guillaume Leduey was 13 years old, he discovered the Eyak culture when reading about endangered languages. At 20 years of age and upon the invitation of filmmaker, Laura Bliss Spaan, he travelled to Alaska and to Eyak ancestral lands in Cordova.
This began Guillaume’s journey and surprising role at a pivotal point in Eyak language revitalization. Now, a fluent speaker, Guillaume continues to teach the Eyak language. Dr Michael Krauss, a linguist and professor, is still passionate about the Eyak and has been tirelessly documenting the language since the 1960s.
Together, Guillaume and “Mike” are currently transcribing the Eyak Dictionary and texts to digital format and have become honored members of the Eyak community.
Join us as we discuss Pulitzer Prize winning novel, The Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead, the gripping tale of one woman's will to escape the horrors of bondage. As Whitehead brilliantly re-creates the terrors of the antebellum era, he weaves in the saga of our nation, from the brutal abduction of Africans to the unfulfilled promises of the present day.

mark International Women's Day.
International Women's
Day, March 8, 2019 is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural
and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action
for accelerating gender parity. This day allows organizations large
and small to highlight how valuable women are to today’s
society. The UN states this year’s theme as: Think equal, build smart, innovate
for change. The
theme can focus on innovative ways in which we can advance gender equality and
the empowerment of women, particularly in the areas of social protection
systems, access to public services and sustainable infrastructure.
Our event will be on
Thursday, March 7 at the Wilda Marston Theater, Loussac Library. 7 Women
willspeak for 7 minutes on any facet of the above theme,
whatever resonates. We are using as a template the Arctic Entries
format which in turn was inspired by This American Life and Stoop Stories of
Baltimore. Prior to the program there will be a reception.
Art journals are illustrated diaries or journals on any theme. They can include drawing, painting, collage, and more! Explore your creative side with this fun and social group.

At 5:36pm on March 27, 1964, a magnitude 9.2 earthquake--the second most powerful in world history--struck the young state of Alaska.
The violent shaking, followed by massive tsunamis, devastated the southern half of the state, demolished the city of Valdez, swept away the island village of Chenega and killed more than 130 people.
In a compelling tale about the almost unimaginable brute force of nature, New York Times science journalist Henry Fountain combines history and science to bring the March 27, 1964 Alaska earthquake and its aftermath to life in vivid detail.

Join us for an evening with Henry Fountain!
Henry Fountain has been a reporter and editor at the New York Times for two decades, writing about science for most of that time. From 1999 to 2009 he wrote "Observatory" a weekly column in the Science Times section.
His book "The Great Quake", tells a compelling tale about the 1964 Alaska earthquake - the largest earthquake in North American recorded history - and the geologist who was relentless in his pursuit for answers to explain how the disaster took place.
His book brings the earthquake to life through vivid imagery and detail, and demonstrates the brute force of nature, an uncontrollable power that can wreak heavy damage on the places we call home.
A book signing will follow his talk. A limited number of books will be available for sale.

Charmingly soft-spoken and yet
powerfully incisive expressing his profound ideals, Fred Rogers was a unique
presence on television for generations.
Through interviews of his family and
colleagues, the life of this would-be pastor is explored as a man who found a
more important calling to provide an oasis for children in a video sea of
violent bombardment. That proved to be his landmark series, Mister Rogers'
Neighborhood (1968), a show that could gently delve into important subjects no
other children's show would have dared for that time.
In doing so, Rogers experienced a
career where his sweet-tempered idealism charmed and influenced the world
whether it be scores of children on TV or recalcitrant authorities in
government. However, that beloved personality also hid Rogers' deep self-doubts
about himself and occasional misjudgments even as he proved a rock of
understanding in times of tragedy for a world that did not always comprehend a
man of such noble character.

crew, actors, money, props, location permits, make-up, money, or money? Us too!
Hi, we're a group of local yokels with varying degrees of degrees. We all have
one thing in common, we love to have FUN and we love to make MOVIES! We're
looking for some other people around town who, in the words of Bryan Mills,
have a very particular set of skills (we'll settle for enthusiasm in a
pinch).
Acting, writing, camera, sound and lighting tech, SPFX, production,
animation, story boarding, wardrobe, editing, set design, props - you name it,
we'll exploit it.
We have a MeetUp™ group with the same name (Amateur
Filmmakers of Alaska) and encourage you to join and come discuss the
possibility of collaborating on some awesome and sometimes terrible short films
that will earn you neither money nor the respect of your peers.
Please come and
join us as we trudge the happy road to creative silliness and sometimes seriousness.

Everyone deserves to be listened to. That is what The Listening Post is here to do - honor you, offer you respect, and hear your story.

Have you always been interested in making films but
couldn't get started because you didn't have money, experience, equipment, a
crew, actors, money, props, location permits, make-up, money, or money? Us too!
Hi, we're a group of local yokels with varying degrees of degrees. We all have
one thing in common, we love to have FUN and we love to make MOVIES! We're
looking for some other people around town who, in the words of Bryan Mills,
have a very particular set of skills (we'll settle for enthusiasm in a
pinch).
Acting, writing, camera, sound and lighting tech, SPFX, production,
animation, story boarding, wardrobe, editing, set design, props - you name it,
we'll exploit it.
We have a MeetUp™ group with the same name (Amateur
Filmmakers of Alaska) and encourage you to join and come discuss the
possibility of collaborating on some awesome and sometimes terrible short films
that will earn you neither money nor the respect of your peers.
Please come and
join us as we trudge the happy road to creative silliness and sometimes seriousness.
