HANGING OUT AT THE SOUTH BANK

About this event

Inspired by Sheila Liming's 2023 book, Hanging Out, this event is about "*daring to do nothing much, and even more than that, about daring to do it in the company of others*." If you're curious, you can read more about my rationale for the event here (https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/p/hanging-out), and how our pilot event went here (https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/p/it-worked). This will be the 7th month in a row of 'HANGING OUT AT THE SOUTHBANK' - it's going well! This event will take place in the foyer of The Southbank Centre. You can find us by looking out for: • Me - I will be wearing a black T-shirt with HANGING OUT written on the back • Our table - we usually gather at the tall tables in the Festival Bar & Kitchen on Level 2. Our table will have a sign on it 'HANGING OUT' (see attached photos). • If I get away with it, it will also have a red flag draped over the table with 'THE SUNRISE CLUB' emblazoned on it (though this clearly isn't THE SUNRISE CLUB! If you want to find out about that, you can do so here (https://www.meetup.com/the-sunrise-club/).) There are plenty of places to buy refreshments, but you can also bring your own if you prefer. If you feel like using this event as a carrot for some creative work, please join us an hour earlier for WRITE CLUB (https://www.meetup.com/experimentsin/events/315825117) \- an hour of silent writing/reading in the same location\. And if you'd like to finish the evening with a dance, there is a free social salsa meetup just outside The Southbank Centre just afterwards.
