The Art of Gathering: Post-talk conversation and networking at the RSA

We hope you’ll join us for a special cross-regional event bringing together South East and Central Fellows at RSA House to explore how we meet and why it matters. First we’ll hear Priya Parker discussing her book The Art of Gathering which explores what makes a truly transformative gathering. Then we’ll head downstairs for a tour of Rawthmells, the RSA’s new coffee house space, refreshments, and an opportunity to put Priya’s advice into practice with other Fellows.  

Feel free to join us from 4.30pm for tea, coffee and conversation in the Dr Cross Room before heading up to The Great Room for Priya’s talk 6-7pm. We'll be back in Rawthmells until it closes at 9pm but this is an informal event: feel free to stay just as long as suits you.
