LARC exhibition space is very cool

Kate took Lee and me to the LARC earlier today and the space is very exiting!

We could use the ground floor atrium for the exhibition space, it has quite a lot of furniture and a kitchen corner already in there, so it would make the construction of a living space much easier. There is a storage space in the basement for the things we don't need or the other way around - there are more chairs and tables and stuff there to use.

The room is perfect size and we have freedom to mould it any way we need to.

The place is basically free (they expect a donation, something symbolical like £20 a day) and it is booked for us 10-15 December including the setting up and dismantling the exhibition. There are no limits considering opening times!

Location is quite good, in a short walk distance from 3 tube stations (Whitechapel, Aldgate East and Shadwell).

Problems:
We don't know about the insurance yet, but Kate will have the information by Monday.
The space for guest on the opening night is literally a small hall that would fit about 8 people max. I guess we could all hang out on the street, though.
We will need to organize food and drinks for the opening night, but we planned to do that anyway.
