Video: Mushroom Hunt and Identification with Carl Whittaker – Ithaca Freeskool Distance Learning

Missed a class? Loved a workshop so much that you want to relive it? As part of D.I.Y. Movie-Making, we’re filming other Ithaca Freeskool classes and making them available online for anyone who wants to participate.

Renowned local fungi expert Carl Whittaker led a Mushroom Hunt and Identification on August 30th, 2009. Enjoy the beauties of the Danby State Forest while learning about many species of edible and inedible mushrooms.

Submit your class proposals for the Winter-Spring Session!

Attention all Freeskoolers!

As the Fall-Winter Session winds down, we’re looking forward to another session beginning: new classes, new ideas, new facilitators, new friends. The next session will run from February 1 until April 30.

**The last day to submit proposals for this session is December 31, so please act fast!**

Send all submissions to ithaca_freeskool@riseup.net or drop them by the Silent City Distro (115 E MLK Street, above Autumn Leaves in the Workers Center).
In regards to your class, please include:
-Class Name
-Facilitator
-Date(s)/Time(s)…as specific as you can be
-Location
-Description…as concise as you can be

We’ll be assembling the calendar in early January, and we’ll have a kickoff fundraising event towards the end of that month (more exciting details to come). Keep in mind that you decide how often you’d like your class to meet; some classes meet weekly, while others meet only once. Share any skills you find valuable, entertaining, stimulating…or facilitate discussion groups on topics of your choosing. There are so many ways to participate.

We look forward to hearing from you! Please send this link to folks you know, and spread the word! Any questions? Just give us a holler at the aforementioned email address, we’d be happy to help.

with bells on,
The Freeskool Collective

Clog the System, postponed.

I know we need to take care of this terribly unsustainable system asap. But I need to postpone the Clog the System class for a later date. There’s already a few people signed up for this class, so, if you’d like to participate. Please e-mail me and I’ll send you the details! Great. Seeyah. clover56(at)riseup.net

in the meantime, check out CLOG THE SYSTEM

New Calendar available! **UPDATED**

The new calendar is now available for pick-up in Ithaca, or download if you want to print it yourself. Get it here!

Note, two new classes have been added and several dates have been adjusted. Please make sure your calendar says “Second printing” on the cover.

New Term Starting Soon! Stay Tuned…

Our new calendars are done and are being distributed! Look for them everywhere.
