[Artmurmur] Community Organizers Potlucks on First Fridays?

Hi all! Last week, we had a great gathering of folks - most of them new to the space - who participated in the POSSE party sponsored by the BACE Timebank. We got to know each other, shared food, then went around in a circle listing things we were seeking / needed, and things we had to offer. It was great fun and many friends were made! That's to become a monthly 3rd Fridays event. There is also desire to do something similar on First Fridays, but tailored more towards community organizers to come, share food and resources, and engage in a sort of 'meta-organizing' event. I am imagining that more in-depth conversations could potentially be had in the Public School (I've bounced this off Mica from TPS but not the group yet), while the common space could be for more for gallery- and demo-style activities, with tours being given in sudo room proper. Would love to hear your thoughts on this proposal!
