FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
We Are All Teachers!
Ithaca Freeskool Call for Winter Classes
 
ITHACA, NY – December 27, 2012 – Ithaca Freeskool is looking for passionate people who want to share their skills and knowledge in the upcoming winter session, February 1st to April 30th, 2013. Class proposals are due on January 4th and should be submitted online at http://ithacafreeskool.wordpress.com/get-involved. The winter session class calendars will be released at the January 10th Trampoline Presents storytelling event at Lot 10 near the Ithaca Commons.

Ithaca Freeskool is a grassroots, all-volunteer community-building initiative that creates spaces where people teach and attend classes with one another without cost. Primarily, but not exclusively geared towards adults, anyone can teach and anyone can attend.

Class proposals are being solicited on any and all topics of interest to the community. Past classes include "Intro to Bioregional Mapping," "Cloth Diapering Basics," "Eating & Identifying Wild Plants," "Traditional & Experimental Animation" and many more. Teachers can choose how often in that three-month period they want to teach their class. Single-session classes are welcome. The teacher should choose a day and time that works for them and find a space. Classes have taken place in people's homes, public parks, local coffee shops and community centers.

Organizers promote classes by distributing calendars throughout the community and listing classes on the Freeskool website as well as on Facebook and via local email lists. Teachers are also encouraged to create posters for their classes and do what they can to help with promotion.

Ithaca Freeskool is looking for new volunteers and organizers! To get involved, email Lily Gershon at pipylotta AT gmail.com.
