What is open space technology?
Open Space Technology refers to a structural method for holding “open source” or “open culture” conferences. Open Space Technology goes against the traditional conference where information flows only from one guest speaker to a larger group of people. The Open Space gathering encourages group information sharing by providing a structure for it. Members of the group decide what topics to cover and what they want to learn, teach, share, talk about, or do. An open space provides the ideal workshop format for someone with a busy work or school schedule, since you only need to attend the days/classes that appeal to you.
When: Starts August 4 th Goes through August 10th

Rewild Camp is a FREE event designed to serve the people of Portland. Our goal is to reach out to the homeless, the home-schooled and unschooled young and old, the starving artists, dirt-poor college students, etc. No one charges for their classes/facilitation, no one pays for them. It’s an exchange of information, not money. Of course, we looooove money and so will happily accept your generous donations!
