Some of the meetings listed are very odd combinations of topics
.
Power to the People!
They are lists of meetings at the same time - there are several meetings in each time-slot.
i'm really interested in going, but i've never been involved in anything like grassroots before, plus i'm only sixteen- should i still come along?
You bet you should come along. Grassroots Gatherings are open to anybody who is interested in building a better world from below. You don't have to be a member of anything or have been involved in any political stuff before. The workshops have a really broad range of themes and the speakers are from all sorts of different campaigns. The idea is that people can go along, hear different voices, take part in discussions and make up their own minds, rather than listening to a single 'party line'. There is also normally a big mix of different age-groups.
Looking forward to finding out how stencil design is done. See ya on Saturday morning.
well....
free
though I'm sure donations would be welcome
not a commercial event
There will be a kids space all day saturday and sunday. If you know ahead of time that you are bringing a kid with you let us know, otherwise we will see you and your young ones on the day.
Feel free to bring any toys . . .
