| <p>Aside from formal hosting sessions, we continue to welcome people in our studio in Brussels for informal gatherings. In the spring we began hosting <a href="http://fo.am/blog/2014/07/17/library-salons/">library salons</a>, which have seen a diverse and highly entertaining crowd make an appearance who have never failed to surprise in their selection of reading matter. These salons are low-key public events where each of us choose a passage to read from one of the books in our library. The unplanned connections and parallels that have emerged from these sessions often made them feel like serendipitous study groups on life, the universe and everything in-between. Our next salon will be held in September, with Rebecca Conroy of <a href="http://thelibrarium.org/">The Librarium</a> as a special guest.

| <p>We can’t wrap up the theme of hosting culture without mentioning our (by now well-known) Friday <a href="http://fo.am/apero/">apéros</a>. Over quite a few years now we’ve hosted hundreds of people who have come to visit the studio for a drink and a chat, sometimes to get to know FoAM better or talk about a project. But the best conversations happen when people arrive without expectations, simply to share food and drinks in good company. We will restart Friday apéros in September after our summer recess. And so in the spirit of hosting culture we welcome you to come to one of these apéros, or become involved in other ways. We look forward to meeting you!</p> | <p>We can’t wrap up the theme of hosting culture without mentioning our (by now well-known) Friday <a href="http://fo.am/apero/">apéros</a>.

Dan zullen onze reizen en experimenten vast weer vele nieuwe gedaanten aangenomen hebben, waar we je graag over zullen vertellen.</i></p> | <p><i>Vanaf september houden we weer onze wekelijkse apéro’s op vrijdag, om 17u.
