WHAT: Beyond the walls – the CSI party with a purpose
WHEN: Friday, June 17th, 8pm
WHERE: CSI Annex, 720 Bathurst St

Last year, the Centre for Social Innovation opened it’s new Annex location, turning a cramped, drab office space into an open, welcoming home for a lot of great organizations and companies (Spacing included).With two floors of the new space finished, they are now busy working to get the first floor up and running.

This Friday CSI is holding a fundraiser to help with the construction of the first floor space. Spacing will be there with some copies of our new issue and merchandise. A couple of things that will be featured at the party are:

Dance Party

DJ’s Goin’ Steady will be delivering the goods from 8:00pm-1:00am, throwing down a mix of dance-friendly tracks for you and yours. You may remember the Goin’ Steady DJ’s from such parties as the CSI Annex launch, featuring a sold-out crowd of over 500 people!
