Twin Oaks Communities
Conference
August 31 - September
3, Louisa VA
An FIC co-sponsored event
A chance to network and learn about communal
lifestyles—from co-housing and
co-ops to communes and ecovillages—at one of
the best-known intentional communities in North America.
" Sharing is the key to a better
world!"
If you live—or want to live—according to
the ideals of sustainability, cooperation and equality, join us at the
annual Twin Oaks Communities Conference this Labor Day Weekend.
Since we’ve moved the 2012 conference to a long
weekend, we are making some exciting new additions to the event:
- A full day
workshop on sociocracy, an efficient governance
method for any community, organization or group. Led by Sheella Mierson
and Ron Czecholinski of The
Sociocracy Consulting Group on Monday, Sept. 3, for a small fee to
conference attendees.
- A “Mock-upy” role-playing
experience (also on Monday, Sept. 3) simulating an
Occupy campaign. Led by conference organizers Joanna and Paxus,
“Mock-upy” will allow conference attendees to put their new
community-building skills to work in a fun, fast-paced environment.
- Indoor Accommodation
through nearby retreat center Sophia House.
- Representation from the transition town movement,
worker-owned businesses, resource-sharing cooperatives and more!
- and much more
