Hi Sudoroom people,
tonight in the Delegates meeting (without quorum) we checked in on this
proposal. Sudoroom people should look into delegates meeting notes and find
out about all the exciting things we talk about at these meetings.
As your delegate, it's my task to communicate the collective desire of the
sudoroom membership back to the delegates' meetings, so lets have meetings and
talk about delegates issues so that I can do that without having to make it
up on the fly.
I am also totally down to train other members to be a sudoroom delegate! It's
1-2 hours per meeting, 1st and 3rd thursdays at 7PM, online (you can attend
from anywhere you want)
regarding the proposal below, Sarah is part of Pro Arts which was operating in
Oscar Grant Plaza downtown until recently when the City raised the rent, but
since their mission is very aligned with that of Omni, Sarah has suggested
this collaboration. I think it's great.

Subject: Re: [omni-consensus] Basement room proposal for Pro Arts
Pro Arts would basically help promote the media lab to its community of
artists. It would definitely be collaborative, rather than taking it over!
I, personally, would be willing to contend with the removal of the "wall of
crates" in the collaborative spirit.

Thanks Sarah
Is CeCe down with collaborating with Pro Arts or will thye take they take
over the Media Lab space. I would hope that Pro Arts would augment the
$300 somehow - like making the lab able to generate income from workshops,
etc.

Hi Omni comrades,
This was something I've been discussing with Silver for the past month or
so, but I want to formally propose it, now that Pro Arts has secured
funding.
Pro Arts, a 49 year-old East Bay arts non-profit, is proposing to rent the
open room in the basement for $300/mo. ($1 sq ft) for use as an office and
a workspace for meeting with artists. Pro Arts would collaborate with Omni
on activating the media lab as a site of art & cultural productions, as
well as curate/present the occasional event in the ballroom (or other
smaller rooms) at Omni.

Let me know if you have questions or concerns.
thanks!
Sarah L
