In-Between Dining or Breakfast ::: our roots

Topic: re-programming the in-between

Purpose: making aware that a lot of private abandoned sites can be used public Location: abandoned or unused in-between sites where a lot of people can see the performance; for example in the green area between the streets separating Old Town from Harbour; the more participants the more sites possible;

Audience: tourists, citizens Timeframe: Friday, Saturday, Sunday Intervention: Having a well equipped, well dressed Breakfeast or Dinner at frequented, unusual locations. Being well dressed. Having tables with table clothes, chandeliers, plates and so on. Food of course. Have a talk about the potentials of unused space over the meal.

Expected outcome for us: getting outside opinions, getting fed and having fun; Expected impact: making people wonder, engaging alternative use of open space;

Bad scenario: it’s raining and nobody has the nerve to look and wonder, we get a cold;

so...

Plan B: panic, no idea;

or...

Plan C: spending our budget for the food with our friends in the next pub :-);
