Plan a Small Event or Workshop With AI

A small event builds community. AI helps organize.

Step by step

  1. Choose the purpose.
  2. Set the budget.
  3. Make an agenda.
  4. Promote.
  5. Follow up.

What to expect

Expect an agenda with timing, a supplies list, a promotion schedule and a follow-up plan.

Mistakes to avoid

Do not forget accessibility, parking and a rain plan. Check venue rules and any permits.

A good next step

Ask attendees for feedback while the event is fresh.

A worked example

A library volunteer plans a two-hour phone-photo workshop for 15 people. AI lists a 10-minute welcome, two 30-minute lessons, a break and a practice period, plus supplies and a promotion plan. She tests the agenda with a friend and shortens the first lesson.
