Attention, attention! We have a new venue and new format!



Our old venue, The Wig & Pen, is relocating to ANU's Llewellyn Hall. They have been forced to relocate due to their old building's impending demolition.



We are taking this opportunity to re-locate, and re-invigorate Green Drinks Canberra!



Our next event will be at our new venue:

Tuesday 9 September 2014

at King O'Malley's Irish Pub, Civic





And introducing our new format for Green Drinks Canberra.



Each event, at 6:00pm, we will pause the room's freeform conversations for the Sixty Second Soapbox! Each person, if they choose, will have the opportunity to speak for up to 60 seconds (mercilessly enforced!) This is a great way to share information about upcoming events, to find collaborators for projects, or to share interesting news.



We hope that the Sixty Second Soapbox will encourage people to use Green Drinks Canberra as a must-attend monthly hub for sustainability networking in the ACT.



We want to be the event that you visit to learn about the other events which are happening around Canberra. We want to be the event that you visit to meet the other people doing important things around Canberra.



Please forward this email to invite your sustainability-minded friends and colleagues, who will want to know about Green Drinks Canberra's revamp.



I will send a reminder email about the next event in the days leading up to 9 September.



Cheers,



Stuart McMillen
