Fill out the interest form and at the end of the month, we’ll connect you with another staff member who has a common interest or knowledge you are seeking. We'll also provide you and your partner with vouchers for the E62 Marketplace Café (or UberEats vouchers for those who need to meet virtually). All staff (e.g., full-time, temporary, contract) are welcome to participate in Coffee Chats.

WE’RE ROOTING FOR YOU
Join us for a fun and relaxing afternoon craft: design a plant pot and give it to a colleague to let them know you appreciate them, or make one for yourself, a family member, a friend... We’ll provide the design materials (e.g., pots, markers, stencils), a plant, and some snacks; you provide the artistic talent. Come for a little while or stay the whole time! Everyone is invited to participate.
Please register by Monday, March 13 so that we'll know how many supplies to order.
