Survey Says?

Howdy, folks - hope you're enjoying our lovely June-uary (thanks, Theo) weather.

We've been noodling around with an interesting idea recently and, besides simply wanting to recognize that for its novelty, we thought we'd float it out to the Compass Universe and get some feedback. Basically, we're thinking about holding a get-together at the good ol' Compass Centre, likely in early September, to showcase the various offerings of the many-and-variously talented characters we get to discover through the program. Initially envisioned as an arts-only display-oriented affair (ie. featuring works from various painters, sculptors, fibre-artists, etc.), we then thought that it could also include other products or services that people might want to publicize. Basically, we're hoping that such an event might shed light on the various cool things our various participants do (work-wise, hobby-wise, or otherwise) and allow you to rub elbows with potential customers, collaborators, or even (hold the phone, Sally!) new friends. With that overall intention in mind, we're hoping for some feedback to help us assess interest and, if sufficient, how best to structure such an event. If you're willing, we'd love to hear your responses to the following questions:

1. Would you have any interest in attending such an event?
2. If so, as a potential exhibitor or viewer?
3. If as an exhibitor, what goods or service would you like to display?
4. If as a viewer, what goods or services would you be interested in seeing?
5. Do you have any bright ideas on what such an event could be called?

Many thanks, in advance, for any input you're willing to provide and I'll be back in touch with updates once we've got an idea of people's interest and commitment levels.

Keep your mufflers tight and galoshes at the ready, all.
