The Red Emma's Free School Project
May 7, 2009
UPDATE: FREE SCHOOL GENERAL ASSEMBLY, THURSDAY JUNE 4th, 7PM @ 2640!
Red Emma's, along with a rapidly growing crew of learners, teachers, and supporters, is taking the first steps towards a new space for radical education in Baltimore - we're envisioning putting together enough community support to open up this summer. We've already got teachers ready to go to teach everything from languages (Spanish, Russian, French, and Arabic) to fighting the prison industrial complex, from pattern making and print design to the history of surrealism. We're looking for interested students and potential "faculty" who want to participate in this experiment in 100% free schooling, as well for a network of people willing to donate to make it a reality. If you've got questions, want to be kept in the loop for potential upcoming classes, or would like to pitch a course idea, get in touch at freeschool@redemmas.org. If you'd like to help us pay the roughly $500/month we'll need to raise for rent expenses for the new space, you can go ahead and set up a small monthly payment via paypal - it's not going to take much money to get this off the ground, but it is going to take some, and every little bit helps!
More info on the project's website: freeschool.redemmas.org
More info to come, or stop by the store or one of our weekly collective meetings on Sundays at 7PM....
