The coworking space at 16 West Beverley St. recently announced its April schedule of business and community activities.
April 9
(h)OUR Economy Potluck
Once a month, hOUR Economy gets together to share food & ideas, needs & talents, plus a little fun sprinkled on. We welcome new members, and catch up on existing projects.
We’ll be shifting to a more informal model this month, with less of a “meeting agenda” and more time for “meeting friends.” Come see what other hOUR Economy members are up to and how you can connect with their projects, or find support for your own.
Bring a dish, a friend, or a new idea. All are welcome!
