FRIDAY, JULY 21, 8pm ::: Josh Weinstein presents the Leadership Video Screening (80 minutes)
Originally curated for the Leadership Forum at Silver Bay, the longest running management conference (now in its 88th year) in the US, this collection of short videos provides a space for inquiry into the concept of leadership. The screening is a starting point for a dialogue between the arts and business communities. The selected works demonstrate leadership through form and content: they take action, say something, call into question basic assumptions, focusing attention and push perceived
boundaries. Includes work from The Yes Men, Creative Commons, animation, straight documentaries, interventionist documentaries, youth media and internal corporate media.
8p, $3-10 donation

The Empty Vessel Project is an action, art, and sustainability experiment. We salvaged EV, a WWII rescue boat, to create a space for re-imagining the post-industrial urban environment. We are a non-profit, volunteer-run organization and encourage participation on all levels.
EV is moored on Brooklyn's Gowanus Canal. The boat is our first project. We invite you to come join us on board to work and play.
We host work parties, movie nights, seminars, concerts, dinners, and workshops. The Empty Vessel is available to realize your dreams and schemes.
This newsletter is your guide. It appears in your in box each week, listing events and tracking changes. Can it be better? Contact
