Description:

What happens when you get a building for $1 and give it to the community to run?... [freespace] The experiment started in June of 2013 and has quickly spread to cities around the world. A [freespace] is a gathering place for people to come together, to create, teach, learn, and share the things which they are truly passionate about, and strengthen connections between individuals and communities through art, events, and long term projects. Anything goes as long as it is both free and inclusive like an urban version of the “permission engine” on the playa. Currently there are 8 open [freespaces] in 6 cities on 4 continents. There are communities developing in 26 locations and 18 different countries around the world. [freespace] co-founders and organizers from around the world will host an information session, discussing the [freespace] model and facilitating Q&A. Help bring the playa ethos back to your community.
