Schedule of Upcoming Events
Event: Winter Solstice Celebration
Date: December 18th, 2010
Appropriate Technology Workshops
Appropriate technology is technology that is appropriate to the environmental, cultural and economic situation it is intended for. An appropriate technology, in this sense, typically requires fewer resources, as well as lower cost and less impact on the environment.
In practice, it is often something that might be described as using the simplest level of technology that can effectively achieve the intended purpose in a particular location. However, the terminology is not very precise.
E. F. Schumacher asserts that such technology, described in the book Small is Beautiful tends to promote values such as health, beauty and permanence, in that order.
Community Living Arts Internships
We will be providing long-term internships in the coming years. These will be
available to students and non-students alike. They will focus on the arts of cooperative living.
At this time we have not begun this program.
