Dear All,
Next week’s talk is a corker. British architect William Alsop, ceramicist Emma Bridgewater and impressive Occupy LSX supporter Naomi Colvin will talk about the changes in British community over the past 50 years and consider what can be done to encourage integration and happiness. Get tickets here.
There will be gourmet burgers and food from Street Kitchen at the evening, as well as the usual excitements of the Doodle Bar. At the bar, ToMax members can enjoy a free beer and 10% discount thereafter (the latter at the Doodle Bar in general).

Emma Bridgewater will discuss her experience at her factory in Stoke-on-Trent and discuss the importance of a workforce, as well as solutions to chronic unemployment in the West Midlands.
William Alsop will talk about the workshops he held in Bradford to harness local people’s ideas for a new Town Centre. He will explain how architects can listen to what people really want and the importance of pubs.
Naomi Colvin will reflect on the impact of Occupy LSX after their controversial debunking from the St. Paul’s site and the UBS building. Occupy ‘s approach, she believes, epitomises the good democracy absent in national decision-making.
