As you may have heard, Ecovillage, along with Ithaca College, Cooperative Extension/4H/Primitive Pursuits, and Earth Arts, is sponsoring a wonderful workshop for adults with Mark Morey, the founder of the Vermont Wilderness School, and the Institute for Natural Learning. The workshop is from 10 am to 4 pm on Sunday, September 30, at the Frog CH. The sliding-scale fee is $30-$60, with limited scholarships available. Pre-registration is recommended but not required, If you're planning to register at the door, please come over between 9:30 and 10, so that the workshop can start on time. Please bring a bag lunch, and dress to be outdoors part of the time.
Mark Morey has worked closely with Jon Young, founder of the Nature Awareness movement, to design a cultural map drawn from native cultures around the world. Their cultural map looks not just at what knowledge and skills elders teach, but also at how they teach. Participants may expect to deepen their awareness of nature, learn methods of community building, and take part in art-of-mentoring activities. The goal of the workshop is to go beyond skill-building and stimulate us to find new and creative ways to work together. Prepare to be challenged, encouraged, and energized! For Information and Registration: contact Dale Bryner from Earth Arts at 607-272-6486. I'll also be glad to talk with you about what I know. If you have time, it would be great if you'd forward this email to others who might be interested and/or print out a copy or two of the flier to post in places where you go. Thanks, and we hope to see you a week from Sunday, Valorie  _______________________________________________ RSS, archives, subscription & listserv information for: [email protected] http://lists.mutualaid.org/mailman/listinfo/sustainabletompkins free hosting by http://www.mutualaid.org
