Lily e-mails to note shoes' "Outgrowing Capitalism Conference This Weekend" from The Mad Hatters IMC:
Topic Connecticut Action When we all want to learn many subjects, it seems we all register for a conference and travel to New York City or Washington, D.C. Why not Hartford? It's about time! All you have to bring is T-shirts, bikes (optional), art for the communal art gallery and food donations!
Outgrowing Capitalism: A Gathering of Existing Structures NEMA, IMC's, FNB's, and more will be in Hartford
Friday,
May 27-29
kicking off with a Critical Mass ride at 4:30pm
at Bushnell Park
and get this, registration is free! ($10 donations urged).
This conference seems more exciting than others because new skills are offered, such as urban gardening and composting, beer/wine making, radical menstruation (as alternatives to pharmaceuticals), free schools, jewelry making and radical walking tour of Hartford. Each conference has their own time to let your hair or bald heads down but this one has a new twist: a punk rock prom!
