MADC Launches 'Non Events' for Melbourne Creatives

The MADC launches the incredible new event series MADC Non Events. Incredible due to the fact that the MADC are doing absolutely nothing to organise them except providing a place and time for people to catch up. Which is: 

Simon Thomas, MADC co-president, says, “From the MADC Showcase night we found that, interestingly, people really enjoyed just catching up, and thought, wait, what if there was a central public place where food and drink were already provided? We had invented the pub. And so, we thought we should all just go there. And meet. Of course, there’s absolutely no pressure to have a drink, but you can if that’s your thing. There’s no pressure to do anything, really, as it’s not costing us a cent. So, pop along if you like. It’s open to all people, all levels, all different types of commercial creative professionals. We just thought we should get together, more often… without the MADC having to do much.”

Edwina Gilbert, MADC Non Events ‘organiser’, says, “There will be no sumptuous canapés ,except those usually provided by a pub to be consumed at your own cost, absolutely no speeches, unless someone else at the venue is having a milestone birthday,and if you head to the bar and simply mention the MADC you will receive nothing but quizzical looks, which will be provided completely free.”

Matt Lawson, MADC co-president, says, “We would love to see you all there, to judge if this is something that is necessary for Melbourne. And if the inaugural MADC Non Event is a success we plan to do them more regularly as they’re incredibly easy to organise. All you have to do is dictate a press release into your phone and hope for no mistakes. Seriously kids keep it down... I’m just trying to do this one work thing. I hate you dad! I wish I was never born!”
