» More information

An evening of presentations about interesting topics! Check out the poster! Jesse Blank, shed resident, will regale us with tales of crows, Capp Larsen will share stories and photos of Elsewhere, a former thrift store turned museum/art-space/community education centre in Greensboro, North Carolina, Various Roberts Street members will dazzle you with short snippets of their knowledge, and more!Come for the stories, stay for the fire.

This event is inspired by an event in Winnipeg where there is a name and topic lottery and that is how the presenters and topics of the next session is determined. Everyone attending the event throws their name in one hat and a topic that they would like to see a presentation on in another hat (not a topic for yourself to cover, but one you'd like to see someone else do). Then a few names are drawn and a few topics are drawn and those people prepare a short (5-15min) presentation for the next session. We'll be doing a lottery for an event next month!! So come with some ideas for topics to be thrown into the hat!
