THE FEAST:

“The Feast” is a cross-disciplinary series of programs addressing
social innovation and new ways to make the world a better place. 
Our secret sauce lies in a healthy combination of passion, creativity,
and entrepreneurship to shift the way things are done – thereby
changing individuals, industries, and ultimately the world.

THE FEAST WORKSHOP:

Two words: hands on. For those who want to roll up their sleeves, and turn their learning and inspiration into application and action.

WORKSHOP HOSTS & TOPICS:

IF COMPASSION HAD A HOMEPAGE
Hosted by Jessi Arrington, Co-Founder of WORKSHOP
Hosted by Creighton Mershon, Co-Founder of WORKSHOP
Hosted by Neil Redding, Technology Strategist and WORKSHOP Strategic Partner
9:30 AM - 11:00 AM


"Can design and technology play a role in increasing compassion? 
Based on author Karen Armstrong's 2008 TEDPrize for the Charter 
for Compassion, come learn, via the Golden Rule, how our similarities 
as human beings are much greater than our differences."

Join Jessi and Creighton, two members of WORKSHOP's 5-person design team, and Neil Redding, WORKSHOP's Technology Strategist, as they discuss the role design and technology can play in increasing compassion. They'll also share insights on making compassion a guiding principle in both personal and professional life. Participate in exercises to get your compassion juices flowing, and brainstorm ideas for making compassion a regular part of your day.

intuitively outfitted with idea-generating essentials: a library stocked
with art, design and photography reference books; a kitchen pantry
filled with goodies; and breakout rooms that could double as private
rooms in the trendiest NY clubs.
