So .... Wikipedia has a few descriptions of what a workshop "should" be... Nothing really explaining the "shop" part of the word in the meaning it is used at burns... the "training workshop" kind of comes closest to what we use the word for... to quote:
"A training workshop is a type of interactive training where participants carry out a number of training activities rather than passively listen to a lecture or presentation."
But trying to fit into pre-determined concepts really limits the creative ideas you might want to convey - calling what you are sharing a "learning experience" (or just general an experience) might tear down some of those mental blockades ;)
Either way - this form exists to be able to support you with your ideas.
You should be self-reliant, but things like electric power for example, are not easy to bring along, and we do want your experiences to happen if they can!
(Therse "workshops" are not art projects though - that is a different form... hmm... do we need a form to ask about how forms should form? ;) )
This year we are a bit space confined - we currently only have the indoor community room in parts and a yurt for sheltered experiences. Outdoor, of course, the limit is up to you (and those who are willing to follow), but we are also located in a wildlife sanctuary area - so if you do plan on an outdoor activity, please be respectful to the animals trying to preserve their energy until warmer seasons.
Of course you are free to improvise at URGH as well, but by telling us what you need and what you are doing, we can coordinate indoor space usage and such. This also allows to provide electricity (if possible), make people aware of the workshop, etc.
If you have an idea, but don't know how to make it happen, try asking for helpt in the UIRGH-anisation Telegram chat found at:
If that does not provide a path forward, feel free to contact me (Telegram @KnightOfBalance ) for possible suggestions.
This form though is to be smooth possible problems, before they can manifest - so without further ado - let's get to the questions ;)
