Attention New Yorkers - Rabbit Island Talk!
Hey New Yorkers, just thought we'd let you know Rob will be giving a talk as part of Best Made Co. Workshops and Whiskey series at the Warby Parker Holiday Spectacle Bazaar in Soho.
Rob writes on our Tumblr blog:
We will be speaking on Sunday evening about Rabbit Island and sharing some stories about expedition and wilderness medicine. We hope to talk a bit about how Rabbit Island came together in the beginning, our efforts over the last two summers building a small shelter, the details of our Kickstarter campaign and social media experience, our five year sustainability and design goals, the evolution of the island artist residency, the basics of medicine in remote locations and ideas for the future—on island and back in society. This will be a fun setting to talk about project (free whiskey!) and it is always great to meet like-minded people. If you have any thoughts for the island or want to get involved come say hello.
Sunday, December 18th
5-7pm
45 Grand Street (Thompson/w. Broadway)
See you there!
