Poetry, short stories, calligraphy, fundraising

We made it to 2016, yaaay. Holidays are over, booo.

Our first poetry workshop ended with a public reading

At the end of the poetry workshop with Simona Popescu, in November, every participant read his best poems in a cozy atmosphere in Londophone. There was also some funny improv and guest poets joined in, reading from their works.

#Colectiv Delivery charity fair raised over 7000 eur

The event we organized on the 28th of November to raise money for those injured in the fire at Colectiv Club in Bucharest a month earlier was a great success. In just 10 days we gathered indie magazines, books, paintings, collages, t-shirts, tote bags, jewelery, home decor products, even furniture donated by creators. We encouraged people to come shop for Christmas and contribute to the recovery of the injured at the same time. We donated the money to Estuar Foundation, who was among the firsts to get involved in helping the victims of the tragedy.

Calligraphers unite!

In December, we had the idea of bringing together all alumni of our calligraphy workshop. They are now around 150. Those who managed to get to Fabrica Club had a good time and exchanged tricks and techniques (and wrote on tables, but don’t tell anyone).
