Hello all! My name is Istvan. I am a special ed teacher living in Brooklyn, NY! My craft and greatest love is improv comedy. I found out about Open Space from my sister who hosted an event while she was in college and I've always been drawn to it for the more emergent and responsive approach it takes to education. I wanted to introduce myself in hopes of connecting with OS Practitioners and Facilitators in NYC to learn more and help host events for NYC Democratic Socialists of America. Looking forward to chatting! Best, Istvan

Welcome to the list Istvan! There are some New Yorkers on this list. You can also find a few on the OS world map <https://www.openspaceworldmap.org/>. Karen Davis, who has been doing Open Space longer than just about anyone around, is listed there with contact information. Again, welcome!!
