Give It Up Spore with Burning Man's Larry Harvey

===Friday, January 29th===
Burning Man’s Larry Harvey at Evolver Gift Spore
Evolver NYC and Burners Without Borders invite you to “Give It Up” at our next Spore, where the topic of the night is gifting – what it means, how it can manifest in society, and possibilities for the future. Consider the potential of a community whose economy is based on giving, rather than having – and cooperating, rather than competing.

This Spore will focus on Burning Man, a phenomenon that has revolutionized and broadened the scope of gifting’s potential. We’ll hear from our special guest – Burning Man co-founder, Larry Harvey – who’ll be coming from San Francisco to share his insights on this emerging concept. Then he will lead a discussion, along with long-time Burners and community leaders David Koren (FIGMENT) and "Costume Jim" Glaser (Kostume Kult, Action Arts League), concerning gifting's role as we continue to evolve. Come early for music and mingling with the Time Interchange of New York (TINY), a dynamic network of New Yorkers connected through a complementary currency system founded on gift culture’s key tenets. Dedicated members of TINY will be offering their services (for free of course!), ranging from energy healing to sewing/mending your ripped jeans!

Stick around for more music, food and drinks, a raffle with some awesome prizes, and interactive entertainment - Burner style! Engage, philosophize, dance, and explore your gifts with some of New York's most thought-provoking partyers - this is an event you won't want to miss! Music by DJ 2melo (eNoiz) and Tektite (Vitamin B).
