[ELECTRON] Fwd: The village Square project

[Bob]

The village Square project

While there are many interesting avenues of change around the city.
There are groups, campaigns, projects and activities, working in the
common good, but many of them are invisible to a lot of people. The
Village Square will act as a focus point for what is happening around
the communities and city.

The project will operate from the Pearce Institute, Govan and be run by
volunteers, on a daily basis also with evening events. There will be
as well as hands on workshops on model making, mapping, meetings, 
discussions, talks, films, bookstall and an info shop.

Groups working in the cities communities will be invited to exhibit,
what they do, share and swap knowledge, ideas, organisational skills and
build solidarity with each other.

We would like to persuade folk to invent their own meet-up ideas and
topics and to encourage those already working in the community to create
awareness of what they are doing. There are a multitude of ideas that
will unfold in the square, but the main aim is to encourage, parents and
children, young folk, older folk to think about, question and help to
articulate ideas interests and issues in their patch.

We can do this in entertaining and inventive ways through cultural
activities, actions, interventions, politics, education, art, drama,
geography, mapping, technology, different mediums, film, photography,
internet, walking, and such, can all be brought into play.

You can find out more about the village Square at the LEGUP dinner
nights, Govan conversations next Tuesday at the Pearce Institute and
every following Tuesday at the Pearce cafe from 6: 30 or see city
strolls for details.
