Where your contribution will go in 2008 :

> Slow Dialogues . . . . . . fundraising goal: $10,000

Please help us realize our ambitious new goal for bringing slow conversations to the public sphere. In 2008 we will expand the 'Slow Dialgoues' to cities around the world. Hosted by trusted members of our network, these intimate events will stimulate locally-based communication and collaboration on slow design ideas and projects.

> Publishing projects . . . fundraising goal: $10,000

A sure way to inspire slowness near and far is by publishing our projects and ideas, both electronically and in print form.  Small books, weblogs, posters and postcards are on the agenda for 2008.  Your contribution will help us realize those projects!

> Slow Ways of Knowing . . fundraising goal: $7,500

'Slow Ways of Knowing' continues in 2008 with DOMINO, a documentary project exploring the complex and layered human stories of the Domino Sugar Refinery in Brooklyn, New York. Please help us fund the phenomenal photographic work of Leslie Grant, the development of a book about the project, and community outreach and events.

> Web site upgrades . . . . . fundraising goal: $5,000

slowLab is raising funds to upgrade our web environment to more dynamically engage slowLab participants and interested members of the public. Please help us fund design and programming of our site to make it more accessible, informative and user friendly!

> Academic Initiatives . . . . fundraising goal: $2,500

Through lectures, workshops and curriculum development, slowLab spreads the thinking and methodologies of 'slow design' to educational institutions around the world. Help us fund the development of print and online materials to maintain and grow these academic initiatives.
