After the main weekend conference,
go
deeper with Carol Swann's workshop intensive based on Arnold Mindell's Deep
Democracy Process, or join
John Schinnerer for Dynamic Governance, aka Sociocracy.
Concurrently, the first FIC Social Change Summit brings together
folks with a fire in their belly to create change via the vehicle of community.
We'll focus on ways in which we can deepen collaborative relationships to strengthen
the Communities Movement.
Whether you are seeking intentional community
for the first time, want to know how to create community wherever you live,
or a seasoned communitarian looking to deepen your cooperative connections,
there are plenty of ways to plug in and share ideas and knowledge, skills and
stories.
Day passes and a special Saturday Night Ticket available.
Discounts for FIC members, students, and seniors.
