A Toolkit for Gathering
Participants: Christopher Sleboda (Draw Down Books), Kathleen Sleboda (Draw Down Books)
Book Launch and Discussion at SAFI FAYE STAGE (HKW)
Join the founders of Draw Down for a discussion on the power of gatherings in design, publishing, and creative communities.
This event coincides with the release of "A Toolkit for Gathering" (2025), a publication that examines how book fairs, DIY spaces, and open sites of knowledge exchange foster collaboration and counteract increasing individualization.
As contributors to the book’s foreword, Christopher and Kathleen will share their experiences organizing, attending, and participating in these spaces — reflecting on why in-person gatherings remain essential for designers, artists, and publishers. Their conversation will explore the role of shared environments in sustaining independent publishing, cultural production, and creative dialogue.
