https://goo.gl/maps/ZmJxTEJG6zzWe're looking for museum, library, archive practitioners and leaders, students, members of the public, historians, researchers, Digital Humanities people - - anybody with an interest in "change" and the future of ideas.
The event is free and open to the public, but advanced registration (through this form) is required so we can estimate how big a room we'll need and we have a way to communicate with attendees if there are last minute changes.
The Unconference and Ignite talks will kick off a formal invitation-only workshop being held the following day, and the idea is to use the unconference/Ignite session to get some strong opinions, quirky ideas, humor, and insight from a variety of perspectives and voices that might not otherwise get heard at a formal workshop.

If you have any questions, send an email to Michael Edson at openlab [at] usingdata [dot] com with "ignite" in the subject line, or tweet with the #openlabWorkshop hashtag.
