The Great POWA Mascot Quest

POWA is on the hunt for a new mascot and we need YOU to help us!

We’re looking to make a design that fits with the POWA community so we’re going directly to them. What would make your perfect POWA mascot? What would they look like? How would they act? You can answer these questions, as well as provide visual references in this survey.

The POWA Committee hopes to gather responses and analyse the likes, trends and ideas in order to create a character reference sheet that can be given to a professional artist. The timeline of this project is TBD, so feel free to think about your responses before you submit!

Discuss, ask questions and throw ideas around in the #mascot-quest room of our community Discord server.

Screenings

POWA Screening, 13th February 2022

Location: Joondalup Library, Upstairs Meeting Room

POWA’s regular weekly screenings continue!

Last week, POWA voted to keep watching the very fantastical, yet very chill Comedy ‘Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle’. We have two shows up for voting this week. Members will decide whether we continue on with our newest pair of shows – the second season of ‘Ascendance of a Bookworm’ and the Mature ‘Vivy: Fluorite Eye’s Song’.

We’ll also be starting a BRAND NEW Slice of Life/Romance/Arthouse show! It’ll have a hard time living up to ‘Fruits Basket’, but we’ll be taking suggestions from members on our Facebook group and the website to help our search.

POWA is also on the lookout for a new mascot! To learn more and to tell us what would make your PERFECT mascot, view the survey here.

Entry for our weekly screenings is $4 for members and $5 for guests. However, your first time is free! Every entry prior to our break receives a raffle ticket for a weekly prize. We will be in the upstairs meeting room, of Joondalup Library. Our doors will open at the same time as the library – 1:00PM and we will start screening at 1:30PM, leaving you time to find the room and settle down with some drinks and snacks.

This Week’s Schedule:
1:00PM – Library Doors Open
1:30PM – Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle – Episode 9 (Comedy)
2:00PM – Ascendance of a Bookworm 2nd Season – Episode 4 (Fantasy, Voting)

POWA’s regular weekly screenings continue!

Thanks to everyone who joined in on our Seasonal Preview last week! We hope you found some shows to keep you interested this season. For everything else, you have POWA’s regular line-up – returning this week!

This week, we’ll be bidding farewell to a POWA favourite series with the end of ‘Fruits Basket’ gracing our screen. We’ll be looking for a replacement show in the Slice of Life/Romance/Arthouse category in the next week. Perhaps even a sequel series? We’ll also be voting for whether we watch the rest of the Comedy series ‘Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle’ or give it an eternal slumber.

Also, look out for our first extracurricular event of the year. This Saturday, POWA will be going to mini-golf at the Wanneroo Botanical Gardens from 6pm. Look out for the event for this soon.
