Hey Julienne,

I think you got the wrong end of the stick. We cannot combine the braai with the Scalabrini centre as the program we run at our studio is in direct opposition with their ideology. We do not do our braais for profit, in fact we don't do anything for profit and we usually do this without funding. The idea of a braai is to create a discursive environment and to get drunk at the same time. It's not meant to be an open party. Especially not for the Scalabrini Centre.

We will approach this event as we do with all others.

Best,

Ed

Hi Ed,
Concerning your idea of a braai, I contacted the Scalabrini Centre.
It would be a good idea to organise something between your space and theirs. They welcomed the proposition.
You could share the budget of the braai and charge for food and drinks, hopefully making a profit out of it.
The person to contact at the Scalabrini Centre for that is Sylvie: xxx xxx xxxx.
I'm Ccing the e-mail to Sylvie.
Please keep me informed about it.
Regards
