Brave New Workshop’s Project 824 reflects the company’s longstanding spirit of service and citizenship and its owners’ philanthropic commitment. As part of the initiative, the BNW offers the Experimental Thinking Centre (ETC) event venue free of charge to local and global community organizations, causes, individuals and social enterprises that aim to showcase innovative ideas and contribute to humanity’s ability to solve pressing problems and create a better world. BNW’s Project 824 is named as such not only in reference to the physical address of the Brave New Workshop and ETC venues, but as a bold commitment to use the space in this manner for at least 824 events.

In October 2011, the BNW kicked off the Project 824 by hosting and webcasting AIGA's Green Drinks event. Additional upcoming events can be found on the BNW's ETC website. Like the ETC venue itself at our new 824 Hennepin Avenue location, Project 824 is in the beginning stages of implementation. As such, we ask that you contact us directly if you feel your event is eligble under the very broad guidelines outlined above. Please email Elena at elena@bravenewworkshop.com for further information.
