Creative Cities Summit 2.0 - Detroit - Sun Oct 12th - Wed Oct 15th

There is 4 day long set of events going on here in the motorcity as part of The Creative Cities Summit 2.0....kicking off at MOCAD this coming Sunday @ 1pm with:

1PM - 5PM
Unconference
MOCAD(Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit)

CCS2 Unconference
An “unconference” is a unique format based on user-generated discussions and participant’s interests and expertise. This event, “Detroit 2.0” is centered around what’s needed, what’s next and what’s possible for Detroit as a vibrant, creative city. Join Detroiters, Michiganians, people from around the U.S. and abroad for a lively conversation to kick off Creative Cities Summit 2.0. Far from your typical business meet-up, the unconference format is infused with Web 2.0 and social media influences where the audience dictates the agenda and becomes the panel.

Register at the Creative Cities Summit 2.0 website then join the conversation on Ning.
($10 donation to
MOCAD taken at the door)

CCS2.0 runs through Wednesday with a number of events centered around visiting detroit's underbelly of creativity...maybe MCB will crash a few of the parties....looks like they plan on visiting The Majestic Complex for JReatard and a Detroit Music Showcase...
