Dear friends,

I put together this post from a number of different places including a Guest post, the Vera Project (especially for the exact address which was tricky to find *happy laughter*), a couple of independent pages, Seattle Skillshare and a couple of others.

Leave comments with additional notes here please: http://bit.ly/skillshare

Love for the people,

"....a political struggle that does not have women at the heart of it, above it, below it and within it is no struggle at all.”

-Arundhati Roy, Quoted from her speech: '2004 Sydney Peace Prize Lecture' (The entire speech is available online, search for the title)

Winter Skill Share!
COME ON MARCH 21ST AND 22ND FOR TWO DAYS OF TEACHING, ORGANIZING, DANCING AND MAKING.
Where? the vera project! - "VERA's office & show/art space is located on the corner of Warren & Republican Ave N, next to the Key Arena in Seattle Center. (we're tucked back under the awning.)"
“There is nothing more inspiring to me than seeing young individuals working and playing passionately in an arts community that is truly their own. It is rare to find a place where kids can govern and learn with the support of adults, rather than the adults dictating their course. The Vera Project is a breeding ground for these young artists, engineers and musicians to grow into leaders of our community and beyond.”
Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam
When? Doors open at 10:30am both days and workshops start at 11 sharp.

What is a skillshare? Well, it's a free conference for radical learning put on by people in the community. The prominent educational ideology suggests that only experts have the authority to teach and that education is typically validated through institutions. BOGUS! we hella disagree, the skillshare organizers feel that life experience is more rich than a powerpoint presentation. We all have incredible knowledge to bring to our communities, households, city etc. and this is a forum intended to bring us together to learn from one another. So cheers, we'd love to see you, hear from you, and get a chance to learn something new! The skillshare space is dedicated to an anti-oppressive space--if you're not down, stay out!
