<h3>How can art inspire us to create meaningful connection? </h3>Live from the cSPACE King Edward Arts Hub, enjoy conversations and creative explorations between cSPACE artists and you through online collaborative technology. This is an organic participant led event based on what matters to those who attend. You don't have to prepare anything. Use your laptop or desktop to login, and then come and have fun! All ages are welcome.The event starts with an opening circle. After some activities, harp music and orientation to Open Space Technology, all participants are invited to post topics in the marketplace. The next two hours of "Open Space" are yours to share, listen and discover your own creative adventure. We also have Live Feeds of two artist studios and two gallery spaces at cSPACE. We close with the opportunity to share insights, stories, and artful experiences with the whole group. Open Space Technology has been used all over the world for 30 + years. It is a simple way to run productive meetings, for five to 2000+ people, and a powerful approach to leadership in any kind of organization, in everyday practice and turbulent change.The event is hosted by Eily Aurora who offers a heart-centred approach as a harpist, singer-songwriter, and Community Catalyst through Alberta Social Innovation Connect.-------------------------------------------------<h3>Drop-In Tech Preparation Calls </h3>In order for you to get the most out of this event, familiarize yourself with the online platform we're using, called Qiqo chat during a 10 minute drop-in tech call. fFeel free to drop-in to one or more of these Tech Calls (all in MST)Monday, Sept 21st - 1:00 - 2:00 PM Wednesday, Sept 23rd - 10:00 - 11:00 AM &amp; 4:00 - 5 PM Friday, Sept 25th - 12:00 - 1:00 PM &amp; 4:00 - 5 PMSaturday, September 26th - 12:00 - 1:00 PM****The event will open one hour before the event for participants to arrive, get settled, and sort out any last minute tech tours or questions.------------------------------------------------<h2>Frequently Asked Questions </h2>1.
