We’ve been doing a tremendous amount of work on the conference site this year. You can look forward to an expanded, fully-functional kitchen, new dome shelters for our workshop locations, and an all-around better-looking site than we’ve had for a long time.
Workshop Lineup
Here’s a selection of workshops we’ll be hosting this year:
Radical Sharing Platforms – with representatives from Maker Spaces, Time Banks, online barter systems, and FEC communities, moderated by Laird Schaub
- Consensus and Facilitation – Laird Schaub, Sandhill Farm and the Fellowship for Intentional Community
- Activism and Spirituality in Community (2 part workshop) – Koinonia Farm and The Farm Community, with moderator Laird Schaub
- Building Co-operative Power – Michael Johnson, Ganas Community
- Panel discussion with the Federation of Egalitarian Communities
We’ll also have workshops on Anti-Oppression Work in Community , Ecological Footprinting on a Community Scale, and Urban Community Building among others.
Ride Sharing
Need a ride? Can you give a ride? Once you register, if you say yes to either of this questions, you’ll be plugged into our ride share system. So, now’s a great time to register!
Benefit Auction for the FIC
Every year we hold a benefit auction for the Fellowship for Intentional Community, during which we bust out the desserts, and for the second year we’ll be served homebrewed beer and soda by the Baltimore Free Farm. You can bring an item to donate to the auction, and bring your generosity and form of payment for when the bidding starts.
Thanks, good job… https://communitiesconference.org/
