Fall 2008 - Design Studio sessions
return to Main Page
Well the Green Garage will be opening this fall! Every Wednesday and Friday starting September 10th there will be several design groups meeting to advance the plans for the GG building and the businesses that will launch in it. The sessions are expected to last until mid-December. They will be held at The Green Garage building at 4444 Second Ave in the Midtown area of Detroit.
This will all build upon the powerful work done by the Foundational Forum team that defined the The Green Garage Foundational Elements this past summer. We are so grateful for their work this summer. This design work will support and grow our understanding of these foundational elements and begin to integrate them into every element of The Green Garage.
Of course there will be food. The building has no kitchen and so we need to keep the food and meals simple. Bring what you need for lunch each day and plan to take what you brought when you leave. There is a small refrigerator and microwave. On Friday we plan on going to a local restaurant for dinner.
You can come for any or all parts...just come for the meals if that suits you...we'd love to see you.
