Hello Everyone,



Sally Duros and I are co-hosting an On the Table discussion inspired by Michel
Bauwens <http://p2pfoundation.net/Michel_Bauwens>’ Cooperation 2015
workshop on the peer2peer economy.  Our #OnTheTable Discussion topic
is the *Chamber
of the Commons*.



At this conversation, we’re holding space to explore the creation of a
Chicago Chamber of Commons and other ways to amplify the work of those in
the peer2peer economy
<http://wealthofthecommons.org/essay/peer-peer-economy-and-new-civilization-centered-around-sustenance-commons>
here in Chicago. We hope that you will join us. Using the #OntheTable2015
as a platform to discuss the *Chamber of the Commons* melds the two ideas
that community discussions spawn energy and interesting ideas.



We will submit notes of our discussion to the Chicago Community Trust for
input into their programming for the year, the Chicago Community Trust’s 100
th anniversary! Last year, some hosts were invited to speak at Chicago
Ideas Week. Our goal in making this event part of On the Table is to
heighten visibility AND to put the idea on the table with a general
influential public. Who knows what could happen?



We are sending this invitation separately from CCT’s online interface and
hope that signing up isn’t too complicated. If it seems so, please direct
questions to either Sally (SallyDuros at gmail.com) or Terry (
terry at newcommunityvision.coop).

ours to discuss the future of our communities while sharing a meal
together. We will be one of thousands of locations across the Chicago
region hosting similar events where community residents from all ages and
backgrounds will come together to put real issues and solutions “on the
table” and share their commitments to helping shape our collective future.*
