Reminder About Firefly Board Office Hours
by The Firefly Official Announcement List 05 Apr '26

05 Apr '26

A brief reminder that members of the Board will be available for, well; anything you want to talk about this coming Tuesday, April 7th, 6pm-7pm at [ https://maps.app.goo.gl/TXzPEWMbrhM6XsRdA | Remnant Brewing ] in Somerville. Things on our mind right now are- what sort of events we would like to see for the remainder of 2026, and planning for a larger festival again in 2027. If you aren’t able to make this one, here are the dates for future occurrences. In-Person Office Hours will take place on the first Tuesday of every other month and are co-located with the first hour of the Greet+Meet at [ https://maps.app.goo.gl/TXzPEWMbrhM6XsRdA | Remnant Brewing ] in Somerville (i.e. 6pm-7pm). More specifically, the following dates: * June 2nd, 2026 Virtual Office Hours take place on the first Thursday of the other months at 8pm-9pm Eastern. The different time and day are intended to enable folks to be able to attend at least one. These sessions will run on Google Meet ( [ https://meet.google.com/knv-meet-uzu | link ] ) * May 7th, 2026 Office Hours sessions will be attended by at least a few board members, and are intended to be a time for casual conversation and Q&A. Please note that since the full Board is unlikely to be at any given Office Hours session and since these will not be formal meetings, Office Hours will not be a venue for getting official decisions made or resolving inquiries that may need the participation of the full Board. We are always open to such inquiries by email. Sincerely, The Firefly Arts Collective Board of Directors
