BULA NADI, FIJI - WE WELCOME YOU TO JOIN OUR JOURNEY

Thursday, July 18th, 2019

Encounter Nadi, Fiji 2019

We invite those living, working and/or studying in Nadi to join our People Make Places journey. We welcome you to consider your sense of place and respond to the theme “My Nadi” in one of our signature matchbox size boxes. View our invitation instructions pages and deliver/create your matchbox work at one of our Pop Up Delivery Points /Creative Workshops over the last few weeks of July.

Our Pop Up Delivery Points are held at places recommended by our local participants. To date they have ranged from parks, cafes, galleries, museums, restaurants and community centres to people’s homes, apartment rooftops, private members clubs, empty shopfronts and at public events and festivals - all of which have been free of charge to access or generously donated. If you know of a great location for a Pop Up that we can utilise for a couple of hours, or even a day or two during our stay, please let us know. Our Pop Ups take up a table or two in each venue. Depending on the place and size, we generally bring 1-4 Time Capsules from around the world with us to share with everyone. We often sit around a long table or a few tables where participants can share their matchboxes with each-other and/or create their boxes. Often locals visiting the venue at the time are curious and they also join in and create their own magical boxes on the spot. The project is very inviting and celebrates inclusivity and diversity and there is always lots of love in the room!

If you would like to recommend a place for us to pop up at between 25 July to 4 August in Nadi and surrounds please contact us.

Match Box Tokyo Meeting Point Suggestions.. どなたかオススメの場所はありますか?

matchboxprojects_popups_global_shedlezki.jpg

(English below)

繋がる、創る、共に創り出す;ポップアプポイントと、クリエイティブワークショップの場所 どなたかオススメの場所はありますか?

いくつかの場所は地元の参加者のオススメによって決められます。公園や、カフェ、アートギャラリーや博物館、アパートの屋上やレストラン、誰かのお家、公民館、お祭り行事などなど、、、これらの場所は無料で入ることができたり、人々の募金によって成り立っています、

もしオススメの場所があれば私たちに教えてください!数時間でも、1、2日でも大歓迎です。私たちがポップアップポイントに置きたいものは1、2個のテーブルのみです。あまりスペースは取りません。その会場のサイズによって1〜10個のタイムカプセルを持っていきます。それらのタイムカプセルは私たちが他の国で集めて一緒に旅をしたものです。なので他の国々の人々の物語を垣間見ることができます!普段会場では、長机が置かれていて、他の人々の創作を見たりお互いに刺激を受けることができます。また、通りがかりの人も気になってちょっと見にきたら、いつのまにかプロジェクトに参加したくなる、、、というように、このプロジェクトは誰をも惹きつける魅力があり、お互いの“違い”を知れる機会であり、たくさんの“LOVE”に溢れた場所なのです!
