Event Description

 Bask in amazement this Monday 1st August! Be Amazed is Intersect's monthly face-to-face in Wellington. 

 

We gather in the cosiness of a Southern Cross lounge to delight in good conversation inspired by a wondrous Wellingtonian and some global tales, feats and ideas.  All are welcome to be amazed.

 

It'll be a little like this::

 

1. Local Showcase: Celebrating extraordinary people and activities in our city. One local (incredibly exciting and Top Secret) speaker talks for 5 minutes.

 2. World Showcase: 5 inspiring things in 5 minutes, harvested from around the world.

 3. Open Mic: 5 minutes for anyone in the room to share  what they’re up to or what they’re thinking about. If you’ve got something you want to say, try thinking about how you could put your message across in 30 seconds.

 4. Magic conversations – chattering and chittering.

Plus more delights and surprises on the night.


There are only 40 slots available for the evening, so RSVP today on this page or to letsintersect@gmail.com

Entry is $10, which gives you an $8 voucher to spend on food/drink on the night, with $2 going to Intersect to cover costs.


FAQs:
Q: Can I bring my non-Intersect Friends?
A: Hell Yes! You can RSVP for them by writing on this wall there below.
Q: Do I need to belong to Intersect to come on my own?
A: Nope, just drop by. It would be great to meet you.
Q: Can you tell us who the presenter is this month?
A: Yes, but that would spoil the surprise. And surprises RULE!
Q: I didn't RSVP, but can I still drop in on the night?
A: Yes! But if the room is already full with 40 people, prepare to Be Disappointed. Wouldn't you rather Be Amazed?
