Re: [Frameworks] Notice of Members Meeting Millennium Film Workshop April 15 Sunday

[Cari Machet]

my choice in bringing the issue to you now regarding co-ops is that you
would get community support and global support from other co-ops to build
and you could build it as you like - with by-laws as your community needs
suit

i know it is a difficult thing i just thought as you were building a new
you may want information on different ways of building community

take the information as you like
i understand your frustration believe me that is why i am bringing the
subject up

take care

Re: [Frameworks] Notice of Members Meeting Millennium Film Workshop April 15 Sunday

[Sasha Janerus]

I don't think a truly horizontal structure is feasible; it's hard enough to
get things done as it is. It may get easier, but I doubt it will get that
easy. People who make day to day decisions need to do so in an informed,
organic *and* accountable manner. New York is a hostile environment,
Millennium is a very complicated beast, it's hard enough to pull these
members meetings off, etc. The very few of us who "clean the toilets," as
you put it, are pretty burnt out, and of course it would great if people
were more involved. At present it's pretty egalitarian, but people need to
show up to put in their two cents, and to have their two cents jibe with
"conditions on the ground." Basically, this isn't a worker's council or
something: people have very different levels of investment, needs,
resources (time, competencies), agendas. We also have other obligations
than those to our members: to our landlord, our grantors, the general
public. I would like to see more accountability: the director appointed (or
fired) by the board, the membership able to vote no confidence at any time
(recallable delegates), and so forth. But even that is a steep logistical
hill. Arts institutions, at least ones that pay rent, aren't utopias.

Re: [Frameworks] Notice of Members Meeting Millennium Film Workshop April 15 Sunday

[Cari Machet]

yes i heard there are great things happening - it says on the invite you
are selecting a board and president so i had some alarm and wanted to send
info asap

i know you are hard at work and do not want to add to your work load but i
think non hierarchical co-ops are a serious matter on a lot of fronts

i would like to connect you all with an organization that helps to set up
co-ops lawyers et al - i am no expert i just know about it - maybe you can
invite them to a meeting?

i have been in some non for profits and these are serious issues
(hierarchy) which i am sure you all are aware of

thanks for all your hard work

We are in the process of updating the Millennium's Bylaws.  These type
of ideas need to be brought up in the following months.  Please feel
free to contact me if you want to carry on the discussion.  That goes
for anybody on the list as well.  Lets get the ideas going.  It is not
as hopeless now as it seemed in the Fall.  There have been many
positive moves at the Millennium as of late.

i am wondering if it has been thought about to make it a co-op
you can have a co-op that is a non for profit that has no board or
president so it is non hierarchical - co-ops are models that make is so
every worker gets the same say in matters - each person cleans the toilet
each person makes giant decisions for the whole

Re: [Frameworks] Notice of Members Meeting Millennium Film Workshop April 15 Sunday

[Lars Fuchs]

Hi Jay, this is great. I can be there. We should talk about procedure and
rules-of-order to keep the meeting from going off track. We should also
prepare a written agenda.

Talk to you soon!

[Frameworks] Notice of Members Meeting Millennium Film Workshop April 15 Sunday

[Jay Hudson]

The Millennium Film Workshop is having a members meeting to vote for
the board of directors and the director.  Also on the agenda is to
make a few changes in the bylaws to facilitate the development and
enacting of new bylaws, which sorely need to be brought up to date.

The Millennium has undergone fundamental changes in the past year.
There has been restructing in the governance of the organization as
well as a change in the space that we have.  However, the Millennium
has definitely bottomed out and is on the way back to health, though
these next few months will determine the future of the organization.
This is the time that we as a membership fundamentally assess the
purpose and future direction.  There has been an outpouring of
support, new board members, discovery of new equipment, and a renewed
sense of optimism in the affairs of the organization.

It is important that we get as many people as we can to show up at the
meeting.  The success of the meeting will determine whether or not the
Millennium will survive.  If you are not already a member, you will be
able to join.  As described in the notice below, only certain members
are able to vote according to the bylaws.When the next meeting
comes along, you will be able to vote.  The doors will open at 5:00pm
to register new members.  A quorum is 50% of the members that are
eligible to vote.

The Millennium has been an important part of the community for nearly
half of a century.  It continues to serve the community with
screenings, equipment rental, workshops, facilities access and the
Millennium Film Journal.  It is in a serious state and urgent action
is needed.  With your support, this important resource can survive and
flourish.

Please share this with interested friends and colleagues.  If you have
any questions or ideas, please send me an email.  I hope to see you
there!
