The Building Bristol Open Neighborhood Chat is every Monday 5p- 6p at New Cambridge Project (The Factory) (Center St). This is an open forum, ALL are invited, to discuss any issues, questions, projects, thoughts or information sharing about our hometown. This gathering is not political, though some topics discussed may have political undertones ~ we ask that all discussions remain respectful and that we talk about the actual issues and solutions. The last couple of meetings have been very interesting and productive. See you there!
