The idea

by admin on April 9, 2009

Simply, it’s about life.

We all love our FB, WP, Wiki, Twitter, etc means of connecting, collaborating, learning and relating online.  Virtual networking and socializing is great to a point.  What we really need is to see that happen in real life.  And for us, that’s about seeing it happen in and around arts and culture.  The idea is to prepare a place where people can RELATE, COLLABORATE and CREATE.  A physical space where creative minds and hearts find the energy, resources and support to see great ideas turn into life changing work.  Check out the other pages for more info.  There’s still lots of work to do and funds to raise and people to engage.

    I am definitely in favour. I am very excited about the opportunity to collaborate on building a social enterprise where creativity and business connect to change the world.

    This is excellent and I am honored to be apart of it. Great things can happen in places where a culture of community is cultivated.

    Thanks Jeff,
    The idea is becoming real every day. We need passionate individuals to roll up their sleaves and help, we need tenants and hoping to find investors or joint venture partners. Keep checking the blog and pop over for a coffee to see our space now. 89 Dunlop St E lower suite.

    We’re in the midst of doing something very similar here in Somerville, Massachusetts with a coworking space for design professionals of various stripes – architects, product designers, graphic design, computer games etc. Space is currently under construction and plan is to open in late June. Congratulations on your project!
