This Friday, Aug. 9, marks the eighth annual International Co-working Day. Sechelt's FUSE Community Work Hub is celebrating this anniversary by throwing open its doors and inviting the community to its first "jelly" events.
Every Friday in August FUSE will host a free jelly event. Drop by with your laptop or tablet and work alongside other creative, fun people.
A jelly is a casual co-working event, where freelancers, home workers and small businesses, social enterprises and other creative types gather to meet new people and work together in a social environment. Jelly is a mixture of work, chat, comparing ideas, passing on tips and sometimes collaborating on the birth of a new project!
In 2005, Brad Nueberg opened a workspace in San Francisco with the intent that people would work independently in the space, build a community and encourage collaboration. This spawned a global movement. Co-working spaces can be found worldwide with over 60 spaces in Canada alone. FUSE Community Work Hub is the first co-working space on the Sunshine Coast.
FUSE's recent success of its Ignite social enterprise program and the FUSE work parties with Leah Goard guiding enthusiastic groups of entrepreneurs to fulfill their own aspirations and providing them with skills to create what they desire in their work and life, have energized the Coast - positively impacting our community, creating new jobs and forming new relationships that will expand all our opportunities.
FUSE Community Work Hub is located at #301 - 5500 Wharf Ave. in Sechelt (above Wheatberries). For information about the jelly dates, go to www.fuseworkhub.com and facebook.com/FuseCommunityWorkHub. You can also email [email protected] or call 1-855-885-FUSE (3873).
