Announcement of the next meeting of the Metro Detroit Archivists League from our esteemed leader Casey Westerman:
“Friends! Colleagues! Bronze, silver, and gold MEDALists! We’ve reached a rough consensus that the next meeting of our dubiously professional organization ought to take place on Tuesday, the 10th of December. Our old haunt, St. Cece’s Pub, is hosting a pop-up dinner that night; the kitchen will be taken over by Righteous Rojo and Kung-Food.
Are you as irrationally intrigued by the contrived scarcity of a pop-up restaurant as I am? Of course you are! Who wouldn’t be excited about the idea of a restaurant that will vanish, Brigadoon-style, as soon as it runs out of ingredients for that night’s menu?
Let’s congregate at or around 6 PM, occupy some precious table space, sample the guest chef’s wares, down some pints, and blather about mentorship or social media strategies or whatever, I’m not choosy.
Practicalities: St. Cece’s has a parking lot, and you may be asked to tip the parking attendant if he’s there that night; there’s also ample street parking. St. Cece’s takes credit cards but the pop-up chefs usually don’t, so you’ll want to have a bit of cash on hand.”
FYI: The Metro Detroit Archivists League (MEDAL) was founded in 2012 to provide archivists of the Detroit metropolitan area a chance to meet, network, and collaborate. Monthly meetings are announced on the group’s Facebook page; previous meetings have taken place in Detroit, Dearborn, Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, and Royal Oak. We’re even recognized by SAA: http://www2.archivists.org/assoc-orgs/metro-detroit-archivists-leagueÂ
