- Hi Gerard, a warm welcome to this Online Community of Learning and Practice.
This sounds great! I first thought about Jasmine's recent inquiry about "Combining the Creative Arts with World Cafe", maybe you can take a peak there. Are you connected to the Hub folks in Halifax?
If you can take a moment, it would be great to read an introduction about yourself here.
May this space inspire you to have a look around and find the juicy spots for you to contribute or harvest...
Please let me know if i can help you here, best wishes,
Benjamin [Global Communications team member]
