Annual General Meeting 2024

Let’s finish the year off together with community! Just before the holidays get into full swing, MT Space invites you to join us for our Annual General Meeting. It’s a celebration, a reflection, and a recommitment to the work this organization set out to achieve 20 years ago. The MT Space team has prepared a presentation of everything we’ve achieved over the course of 2023-24, with special thanks to everyone who supported us along the way.

After the presentation, we will transition into our signature event. It’s the last TELL! of the year!

Jingle TELL!

Join us for our community open mic and potluck dinner. This year we have had so many great artists in the community stop by and share their works and talents. Not to mention the great cooks. We’ve had dancers, musicians, singers, mini lectures, a juggler, and more! Our online auction also wraps up in the evening at 10pm. It’ll be your last chance to make bids and you’ll be able to pick up the item that night as well!
