# Gathering Outline

Design and curate a gathering of your own that incorporates the principles that resonate with you in *The Art of Gathering* by Priya Parker.

You need to decide whether or not your gathering will be:&#x20;

* planned and organized individually or as a team or group&#x20;
* in-person or virtual&#x20;
* One-off or serial

The number of gatherings you will design and host will depend on the [scope](/the-art-of-gathering-sp-2024-duff/resources/scope-moscow-method.md) of your gathering and whether it is serial or not.

Develop and articulate a clear purpose, audience, agenda, and desired outcome for your gathering(s).

Constantly iterate your plan over the course of the semester. It may grow and/or shrink over the course of the semester. Don't worry about "getting it right." The creative process is messy. This outline is a stepping stone to your overall [plan](/the-art-of-gathering-sp-2024-duff/assignments/project_plan-1.md).

## Gathering Outline -> Why + Who + Where + What + When + How

* Outline your gathering by using this [Google slide template](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1O5HJWtKdzrgd7D0lUbHhUu4RwyeWxr5xMsZCYrXnJZk/copy) as a starting point! You can expand upon it and make it your own!
* Your file name should be "\[Your Name Here] Gathering Outline."
* Post the URL on our **#outlines Discord channel**.
* Add to your project documentation folder for your [end of semester deliverables](https://deangela.gitbook.io/the-art-of-gathering-sp-2024-duff/assignments/end_of_semester_deliverables). This can be done by or before the end of the semester.

* Who - Who is your first audience? What roles will be involved?
* Where – Where will your gathering be located?
* What - What will be involved?
* When - When will your gathering take place?
* How - What is your plan to design, develop, and produce your gathering? your process?
* You can attack [MoSCoW](/the-art-of-gathering-sp-2024-duff/resources/scope-moscow-method.md) in two different ways. You can either add a slide and write down a bulleted list. Or you can apply [MoSCoW](/the-art-of-gathering-sp-2024-duff/resources/scope-moscow-method.md) to each slide individually.
