The Social Impact Lab Alberta

‍What is the Brooks Design Lab?

The Brooks Design Lab is a series of fun, friendly, and FREE workshops where we’ll be considering atopic chosen by community leaders and developing exciting ideas together! The topic we’re exploring in this lab is focused on newcomers to Brooks and ways we can all work to bring the community together. Anyone from the community can participate.

These workshops will be hosted every other Tuesday, at Medicine Hat College, Brooks Campus from10:30 am to 1:00pm beginning Tuesday, May 16th. The Brooks Design Lab will run for 12 workshops, ending Tuesday, October17th. We ask that participants attend all sessions if possible, or as many as they can in order to build on the work over time. Lunch is provided for all sessions!

If you’re still not sure what a “design lab” is, don’t worry. It’s really about community members coming together to work on a problem but you’ll be taken through different activities by the facilitators that will feel engaging, energizing, and creative.  

Am I The Right Person to Participate?

If you’re someone who is passionate about your community and wants to be a part of making it an even better place to live, we’d love for you to join us.

No special skills or previous knowledge are required to participate. All you need to do is show up and be yourself for as many of the sessions as you can.

There is also potential funding for different ideas that come out of the process to be actioned in community. You can be a part of making that happen!
