THIS IS THE SCHEDUAL FOR THE FRAUGHT FESTIVAL, (everything is totally free and open to anyone)
Saturday Nov 24th, 1-6pm @ the public library:
Public Discussion about local economy, economic diversity in the Yukon, co-ops and collectives, and for this we have invited several "consientious" local businesses to share their history and motivations with us. This will be an oppertunity as well to share perspectives and ideas about community development in Whitehorse and to exchange knowledge and resources. We are emphasising the "sustainable" aspect of community, development, and economy in this discussion. Their will also be food and time to hang out and talk.
Sunday Nov 25th, 1-6 pm @ the public library:
Satuday will be for workshops on how to make things yourself, where we encouge anyone interested in making "crafts" or christmas gifts to come on out: (we are going to supply as much as we can for these workshops, but we encourage people to bring materials and to share with others, there will also be food but we also encouage peoples to bring something if they would like to, but no obligations)
1:00-2:30- Book making with our friends David Kluney Ross and Erin (from the Boys and Girls club) we'll be showing you how to make a couple different styles of book and how to decorate/design them to suit anyones taste (probably)
3:00-4:00- Underware and menstration pads with Amilie and my honey Fabienne. (Clearly these things are alittle gender bias so there'll be a comic/collage making sesh for those who differ) These ladies'll show you how to design and fabricate your own underware/menstration pads using material you probably have around your house, and provide some other relevant knowledges, makes great gifts, you won't want to miss this!
4:00-5:00- Homemade jewlery with Cindy who's gonna show you how to make classy homemade jewlery from things you probably have lying around the house.(again we'll try to offer an alternative to jewlery for those masculine types)
5:00-6:00- Minor bike repair with Phillipe the bike guy, he's gonna show you things I don't know how to do like change a tire, fix a broken chain and probably answer some questions about other things you might want to know.
That will pretty well be it for that Sunday, but we will be back at the library every sunday afterward until christmas for people to work on their projects or gifts and just hanging out, something like 1-6pm, this'll be open to everyone and we'll bring some materials but we also ask people to bring what they can.
Their will also be downtown treasure hunt and spontanous pinata smashing throughout the month as well, however there'll be no schedual for that, just being in the right place at the right time, but I will be making a map that hopefully you will stumble across in your daily journey.
Hope you all will come on out and D.I.Y with us, and tell a friend.
This is a picture of my honey getting Fraught.
