Evening Lecture Series
This program is supported by
Ford Foundation
Time: Fridays, 6PM to 8PM
Place: 25 West 43rd Street,
Room 1000,
between 5th &
6th Avenues, Manhattan
Free Admission
Light refreshments are
served.
Please register at
least a week in advance so
that we may anticipate the
number of guests to
accommodate.
The Friday Evening Lecture
Series provides an
opportunity for
intellectuals and scholars,
to talk about their current
research or activities on
topics that are of interest
to the Asian American
community. Not only will
they be presenting before a
live audience, but they will
also be presenting before an
online audience, via the
Internet through webcasting,
allowing them the potential
to present to the world as
well.
For our live online
audience, we offer the ability to
participate, ask questions
and share comments during
the Q&A sessions of our
lectures, either by
sending an instant messaging
(AIM)
or calling through
a peer-to-peer voice service
(Skype).
Yet, the excitement doesn't
stop there, because each
lecture is also
simultaneously videotaped,
which is then uploaded as
streaming video, and can be
viewed by anyone who visits
our website, along with
notes, pictures and from the
evening. In addition to our streaming videos,
you are now able to listen
to podcasts
of our lectures, and
download them for listening on the go
to an iPod, or any
other mp3 enabled music
device.
Remember...
“If you can’t come to AAARI,
AAARI can come to you!”
