"You Can't Get it from Chips" is a short film created by the I AMM Film Crew to spread awareness about how HIV can be transmitted. The film was created and produced by the Film Crew youth along with help from HIV youth educator Alex Ko.

On February 4th, artwork by the Drawing Club was on display at the Massachusetts State House as part of an After School Advocacy Day program. Speakers at the event stressed the importance of funding after school programs, and displaying artwork created at after school programs helped to stress this point. Works by Trea Crayton, Jose Mendes, Shelton Sterling, and Anslem Edegbe were featured. Photos from the event and their work are shown below. Click on the images to see larger versions.

The Teen Center Movie was finished and premiered Friday, December 11th, in the Dotwell Teen Center and in the waiting rooms of the Codman Square Health Center.  The film can also be seen on BNN, the Boston Neightborhood Network Television station.  Thank you to all the members of the Film Crew, the Teen Center, and Dotwell for helping to make this film a sucess.
