Speakers Corner and Speech Programme

Bob and Roberta Smith's Apathy Workshop
Artist: Bob Smith
As a humorous and surreal antidote to the prevailing sprit of the event, The Apathy Workshop invites hypocrites, the lazy, sceptics, realists, apologists, popularists and unpopularists to devise prior engagements, heckles and excuses for not getting involved in the pointless attempts by the well-meaning to change the world.
