Point A Intro 8:15 PM to 10:15 PM:  Point A is a forming intentional community with likely largely independent branches in Washington DC and the NYC metro area.  The mission is to provide an amplifying environment for self identified high achieving individuals willing to work collectively and for the greater good.  Drawing from the successful income sharing models around while hybridizing to embrace all manner of extraordinary circumstances and post nuclear families.  With luck Point A NYC will open in 2015 and will have cottage industries to support members who don’t bring their own income sources or engines.

Brainstorm 10:30 PM to midnight:  What are the brilliant ideas and opportunities for intentional communities and accessible public sharing systems in the NYC metro area.  What is working, what might work and what insightful lessons can be drawn from previous failures and missteps.  Visionaries, storytellers and reckless dreamers welcome.

Post midnight?  It is NYC, things are just starting to roll, right?

Come for whatever parts you like.  Please RSVP (paxus@twinoaks.org) if you are coming to the potluck to coordinate food.
