AABANY Fall Conference – Law Student Group Rate

AABANY’s 2015 Fall Conference will include programming geared towards law students, such as panels about navigating the job search process. Also, AABANY’s Career Placement Committee is organizing its first-ever Diversity Career Fair.

To encourage attendance and participation by law students, AABANY is offering a special group rate, based on groups of five or more from the same law school. The cost will be $25 per student for members and $35 per person for non-members. The non-member rate includes a one-year membership in AABANY. This group rate covers all events at the Fall Conference, including all CLE and non-CLE programs, the Career Fair, the cocktail reception and post-conference Committee Dinners. The regular rate for students is $75 for members and $125 for non-members and that’s the early bird rate. The group rate represents a huge discount (even better than the combo package) so gather your friends together and take advantage of it today! The group of five can consist of both members and non-members.

Everything Before Us & Closing Ceremony of AAIFF ‘15, Aug. 1

AABANY is pleased once again to be a Community Partner for the Asian American International Festival (AAIFF). As such all our members get 25% off online ticket orders by using promo code aabnyaaiff15. (That’s AABNY – AABANY without the third A!)

You might be interested in seeing Everything Before Us and attending the Closing Night Awards Ceremony on August 1:

Everything Before Us takes place i​n the near future when all romantic relationships are overseen by the D.E.I (The Department Of Emotional Integrity). By assigning everyone a “Relationship Score,” this system is meant to promote responsibility, happiness, and order within the chaotic process we know as falling in love. Born from the realization that scores tend to pivot our decisions today, EVERYTHING BEFORE US is a playful response to our world run by systems and ratings. With a focus on two couples, Wong Fu Productions foreshadows our possible future if such an institution were to exist.

When Ben reconnects with his ex-­girlfriend, Sara, to fix his damaged score, they’re forced to reconcile their past. While it seems as though one chapter of their lives has officially ended, their reunion turns out to be the beginning of many more as they must choose to either comply with the rules of the D.E.I or reject it all for the sake of love. Seth and Haley, recent high school graduates, are in their first registered relationship together. With bright eyes and innocent hearts, they experience the challenge of not only being each other’s first loves, but also each other’s first heartbreaks.

The AAIFF 2015 Award Ceremony will precede the screening of Everything Before Us at the Museum of the Moving Image. The Closing Night Reception will take place immediately after the film. For more information about the movie, click here. To purchase tickets, click here.

Please support AAIFF and Asian Americans in the arts, film and entertainment industries who are creating works about Asians and Asian Americans! Help us spread the word.
