Living Your Dream

by Jeff Frizzell, Commissioner for the Hampton Roads Film Office

Want to be "Living Your Dream"?

Go to the Hampton Roads Convention Center, 1610 Coliseum Dr., Hampton on Saturday May 16th from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. This is an all ages, family-oriented event, free and open to the public. Pre-registration at the website is suggested, but guests will be admitted at the door.

For more info, visit www.LivingYourDreamExpo.com or call toll-free (888) 238-1968.

Speakers include Vanessa Coria from WVEC 13; Prissi Cardea, a talk show host; Daisy Jade, an actress; Quiana Grant, a model who has appeared in Sports Illustrated; and yours truly, Jeff Frizzell from the Hampton Roads Film Office, discussing getting into acting.

Bring the children; there's a free play area as well as dance performances, workshops for children, video game stations and a book mobile.

While the expo developers hope to make this an annual event to aid area community residents and business owners and to create a great place for people to come and get the help and motivation they need to take the next step in their career, they do maintain the website with new information year-round.
