For the record, Common Play Factory would be honored to stage work in an abandoned power plant, even if only for 17 days.

We love this description of the Fun Palace: “a repurposed space for the arts and sciences that (can) accommodate different fields of creativity and ways of life.”

Luminato Festival spent $2 million dollars making this space accessible for culture that will accommodate 850 artists participating in 162 events drawing more than $600,000 visitors yet it might be torn down after the 17-day festival because … investors are no longer interested in making a long term commitment to community soulwork and cultural philanthropy. They are more interested in the power of the dollar than their power to nurture people, more interested in the financial return than the karmic one.

What can we do to change this?
