Falls Brook Centre Free School: July 15, 16 and 17, 2011!

 

 

Mark your calendars now – Falls Brook Centre’s third annual Free School is less than a month away!

 

What?

Free School is a celebration of the idea that everyone is a teacher and that we all have a lot to learn. There are no experts – instead, we are all encouraged to share our knowledge, experience and ideas through workshops, demonstrations and discussions.

 

Where?

Falls Brook Centre, an organic farm and education centre in Knowlesville, New Brunswick.

 

When?

Friday, July 15 to Sunday, July 17

 

Who?

The Falls Brook Free School welcomes youth, families, elders, professionals and amateurs alike for a weekend of sharing and learning something new, all while having fun!

 

New this year will be guided tours of local farms and a Clothing Swap! Bring all the clothes you don’t wear anymore and trade them in for new-to-you items in return! Everyone wins! You get rid of your old clothes, you get new ones to bring home and the environment and other people around the world are not worse off from producing new clothes from brand new materials.

 

Some of this year’s learning opportunities and past favourites include:

·         Knitting Circle

·         Silk-screening

·         Yoga

·         Canvas Stretching

·         West African Drumming

·         First Nations Talking Circle

·         Kids’ Activities (Puppets, Cookie-making, Walk in the Woods)

 

 

The deadline for registration (free!) is July 1^st for both teachers and students.  Please contact Julia at ju...@fallsbrookcentre.ca or call 506-375-4310.

 

Camping is $10 per tent. Meals are $7 each.  Carpooling is strongly encouraged! To link up with others, visit http://www.communityenergynb.ca/rideshare/.

We look forward to you joining us for a weekend of sharing, learning and fun!
