Dear Artists!
This is now our new discussion medium and I hope it will be popular.
Since our first meeting I've dig up information on the association registration and it's now somewhat clear to me. We need rules, to fill in a blanket and to have a founding meeting where the board and other important "officials" are elected. There are standard templates for rules, but what is not standard is the purpose and goals of this association. This requires a bit of a thought, as the formulation on this point can have effects on how the association is able to function in the future, e.g. collect funds.
This leads me to the next issue - our second meeting. Michael has informed me that Kirjasto 10 at the main post office has a meeting room which can be used for free. This seems to me a good proposition. What do you think?
We should also figure out how often we're going to meet, every 4 weeks, every 6 weeks, every 8 weeks? My opinion is that less than that is pretty much a funeral to any association...
It has also been suggested that the meeting should be on rotating weekday, i.e. next time Tuesday, after then Wednesday, after then Thursday a.s.o. This way there would be a good day for everybody at least sometimes.
Last, and nearly least ;-) , if you're pondering what to do on Easter holidays go to Korkeasaari Zoo. There are interactive street theater shows four times a day between 11.30 and 15.30 on every day during Easter. The two shows have important environmental messages, but offer also fun and excitement for all ages. The one is about Easter Islands and the other on Amurian (spell.??) tiger and its protection from poachers. (Why I'm promoting this? I'm in the staging team...)
Looking forward to your input!

Great! Although I am not familiar with using blogs, I hope that this comment reaches you. I think these are all good ideas. I would suggest to meet often and regular (at least once a month) in the beginning, to get it off the ground, and functioning. I will be travelling a lot, so for me this form of communication is preferred, although I like the personal contact... Have a great day, y'all. Michael Weinmann
I agree! I think this is the best way to keep in touch... As far as meeting frequency, I'm in the 6-week camp. And, finally, the center sounds good for the meeting, but hopefully once we are done with "business" we can move it to a cafe or bar for more informal chats?
Happy Easter holiday!

How about if we arrange the next meeting in the beginning of May? 2,3 or 4 May? Which date is most popular?
Happy Easter to everybody!

Hello everyone... the 2nd of may is best for me but I plan on making the meeting regardless. I am new to the area so I am of no help in deciding on a location. I am looking forward to meeting everyone.
OK, I am heading to Tampere for the holiday soon. Happy Easter.

Hi! 2.and 3. of may are good for me 4. can be a problem, but not impossible. I also suggest we meet every 6. week, (and more when there is urgent projects and so on).
