[Scott Gassman]

Hello all.

Please enjoy the reminder and most of all, join us if you can.

>
> Please come and join us on Thursday, August 7th, starting at *6 pm, *as
> the OPEN SPACE community of NYC holds a Stammtisch at the Pig'n Whistle (
> http://pignwhistleon2.com/)  <http://pignwhistleon2.com/>on 2nd Avenue (between
> 50th and 51st) in NYC.  if the weather is nice, we can sit out on the
> second floor  balcony.
> If you are traveling from elsewhere and happen to be in or around NYC,
> please come meet other people who like to work in Open Space!
>
> If you are wondering what is a  "Stammtisch?"
>
> Here's a copy/paste of an explanation of OS Stammtisch Michael M. Pannwitz,
> of Berlin, Germany, provided a few months back :
>
> "A stammtisch is a regular gathering at a regular time (like every Tuesday
> evening, or once a month or, as is the case with the os stammtische around
> the planet, every Monday of every odd month at 7pm)where people interested
> in a particular aspect of life, as for instance open space, gather for beer
> (other drinks are perfectly ok) and food as everyone wishes and talk with
> each other about whatever is on top of your mind regarding open space (in a
> broader sense). People come and go as they find useful, some arrive at 7 pm
> (I usually even earlier to secure a table and talk to the people in the
> pub), some as late as 11 pm and it will usually last until well past
> midnight. No agenda, lots of energy. Last stammtisch in Berlin several
> people came because they needed work (in os, of course), well, they in fact
> found others that were looking for help. So its networking, creating
> collaboration, new ideas are born, people bring stuff for each other to look
> at (pictures, a couple of books of proceedings from recent open spaces, a
> bottle of brandy from Kyiv,  there are always a couple of laptops to show
> things to each other and to write an email to another stammtisch lets say in
> Kyiv or Budapest..).
> Often, there are also visitors from other countries passing through Berlin
> that are real open space stammtisch addicts, they have heard of the Berlin
> one and join. So its international, too."
>
> I know Michael let's us know odd month Monday nights would put us in sync
> with the rest of the OS world, this at least gets us started in NYC talking
> together about Open Space.
>
> Esther Matte, a recent NYC transplant from Quebec and I look forward to
> meeting whoever comes.
