Dear friends

This is a reminder of our meeting next week at Village Well, to have a

Agenda includes

- the Bologna example of city commoning as an exemplar
- break out groups on themes people want to work on
- next steps which also include: Common Transition Coalition (Darren
Sharp), Chamber of the Commons (David Week), City as Commons Policy Paper
(Jose Ramos), other business and next steps people want to add.

there will be nibbles generously provided by Village Well

RSVP is essential so VW can figure out proper catering numbers! email

Please be on time or early Level 1/134 Flinders St,  for Thursday the 4th
of February 6:00pm – 8:30pm.

Looking forward to our gathering of hearts and minds
