CPT Launch (Mowbray): Hospitality and Community Building

Join the OpenSeat Team for our first launch event in Cape Town, in which we share (in both word and practice) the potential for meal-based hospitality to be a means of building community. The venue for our launch is [Gangstar Cafe in Mowbray](https://gangstarcafe.com/cafes/), who's mission is well worth checking out if you're unfamiliar. #### Who's invited? We invite all individuals or people representing a larger organisation * who have a mission (or passion, interest, cause, etc) * are looking to build and strengthen the community of people involved in their mission ... so that they can gain an insight into the radical simplicity and potential of OpenSeat as a platform that achieves this goal. #### Description At this launch event, we are hosting a meal for a nominal charge of R50 which showcases the essence of what the platform is all about. The evening will be an opportunity for potential and prospective hosts — you — to test out the platform and experience an OpenSeat event in-person. Beyond the core purpose of enjoying a meal around our table, we will briefly present our vision and ideas on how you can utilise OpenSeat to pursue the mission of building and strengthening different kinds of communities through meals and conversation. Don't miss this opportunity to join OpenSeat Cape Town at our launch event —and become an integral part of our community-building movement that seeks to overcome the trends towards social fragmentation, isolation and disconnection. Let's forge stronger connections with each other: one seat at a time! #### Event Details: Venue: Gangstar Cafe, 65 Main Rd, Mowbray, Cape Town, 7700. On-street parking is available along [Osbourne Rd](https://goo.gl/maps/Pc6fXHsy4MHkGR568). Menu: TBC Time: 18h30 to 21h00 *(Please stay tuned for further updates regarding the menu for the evening.)*
