Creative Forum OpenSpace event
** Creative Forum OpenSpace @ The Square social centre, 21-22 Russell Square, London WC1, 19th March, 2pm - 12am **
Part of United Diversity’s ‘Another World is Blossoming’ festival
You are invited to the Creative Forum this Sunday at Russell Square.
A collectively self-organised conference for linking with others, discussing, and planning. Use the event to reach people to help make your projects happen.
Everyone agrees to the ‘Law of two feet’: if you feel you are not contributing or gaining from a particular session it is fine to move on to another. This creates a focused, creative, informal environment to be in.
Add to the shared list of ‘wants and needs’, to tap into the skills and resources of those gathered for the event.
The event features a debate done in a Cogers-style on the ’state of the world now and the challenges that face us’, with speakers introducing alternative technologies and diverse business models. A debating method as way to negate the difficulties of networking and the meeting of minds.
Leap-frogging from this event there is to be much more public event at a later date specifically for expanding and actively promoting the projects.
Creative Forums are a gathering of capable and knowledgable people to pool our resources and create solutions. A creative, environmental, grass-roots, forward thinking atmosphere. Come to share your projects and to learn from others.

[…] Shortly after Shane had visited Yelnow Farm and spoken Jim, I met him for the first time in ages at the small Creative Forum event at The Square. […]
