Next Event
SAGE: Sunday June 28th 4.30-8pm @ Youth IncPLAY: Come over to our place 🏡
** NEW HOME: Youth Inc. @ 200 Pulteney Street, Adelaide - enter via the gate on Flinders Street **Join us for an evening of delicious food, hearty discussion and new skills. The night will start with a shared meal, then we will move into community announcements, then into open space workshops, with lots of space for social breaks throughout.On Sunday June 28th, we're moving into our brand new home and we are SO STOKED about it!
SAGE will now be held at Youth Inc., an alternative school for 18-25 yr olds in a cool converted church on Pulteney St in the city. We're keen to build a mutual relationship with the generous Youth Inc. crew and help make the space our own for the long haul.Of course, SAGE is still (& will always be) for all ages. Young or old, parent or pensioner, first-timer or seasoned activist - everyone is welcome.So, to celebrate moving to our new home, the theme this month is "PLAY: Come over to our place" 🏡
The night will be created entirely by the community - anyone can bring a workshop or a discussion idea. And if you've got a mate who could run a good workshop on this theme, call them up & invite them!Some ideas:
✊️ Maybe "play" makes you think of playing with the rules, playing with new worlds and systems.
🏡 Maybe "play" takes you back to your roots and reminds you of childhood games you could bring
🏸 Maybe you have an idea for an unfinished workshop that you want to experiment with running
🎷 Maybe you want to bring an instrument, or an art form
‼️Or something else entirely! As always, you can bring a workshop NOT about the theme too - all ideas welcome.Some other things you might want to bring…
🍲 A plate of food to share for the potluck dinner
🫒 Veggies or seedlings for the produce swap
🧵 Something to mend at the mending corner
🌟 Energy to help shape the new space and make it our own!!Run through of how the night will (roughly) go...
