First Tuesday Club General
Light food and drinks available throughout around the big table. Arrive from 5.30pm to meet and catch up with TBD people. Guests are free to leave from 7pm but the discussion always continues. Usual location to be detailed on confirmation emails.
Attendance is normally limited to 14 people which is about the maximum for everyone to have a say and maintain a single discussion. Discussions are not recorded and of course The Brisbane Rule applies. First Tuesday provides a safe space for free speech from differing perspectives.
"Pay forward or what you can afford" to keep FTC self-sustaining and contributing a little to The Brisbane Dialogues, with student and young grad volunteers and interns (and former speakers and valued sponsors) very welcome to enjoy a freebie.
Note that FTC is a private series for active volunteers, interns, supporters and partners of The Brisbane Dialogues. Email us if you would like to be involved, or would like to bring a guest who is.
