Next steps! - How does this work? - How often can we be there? - Can we manage the place? Important items: - How is the floor****!? - What resources are available? - What resources can we bring? (Storage accesibility) - Security of place and resources? Specifics Summer street by Solna Centrum where they take away the cars and put in hang out areas and a dansbana with a stage with roof. They want actors to activate the area. We are one of them. There is a shed with speakers inside and we will be able to pick up the key from the information desk. We can check the volume with a decibel meter - establish a framework for it. Schedule - DISCUSSION POINT Timing wise - we suggested Saturday every week 14.30 - 18.30 to get the most exposure. They are very open for it. There are possibilities for any other weekday evening, except Monday bc of Sprallen.. People might be travelling on the weekends or going swimming etc.. BUT maybe its more important to be there when its the most people visiting the Centrum…! Exceptions one Saturday a month will be a full day activation - possible to take the class another day then. Open times: Weekdays + Sunday its until 22.00 Friday and Saturday until 23.00 Possible collab: Food trucks can join for a Block Party Day, music, dancing and food. Performances during other activities.
