1) ART SHOW SATURDAY: "EATING FRIED FOOD WITH FRIENDS"!

Join us at the Internationalist this Saturday, 12/5 any time between 7  
and 10 PM for wine, cheese, and art! Internationalist volunteer  
Emily-Kate Hannapel will be displaying some of her works as a  
fundraiser for the store. Emily-Kate uses found materials from  
sidewalks, basements, thrift-stores, hardware stores, and salvage  
yards to create mixed media pieces. She currently has a slight  
obsession with light switch covers (and goldfish) and incorporates  
covers that she has found in her travels up and down the East Coast in  
much of her work. Please come and take a look, have a glass of wine,  
and chat with friends. Email Emily-Kate at ekhannapel AT gmail.com with  
any questions.


2) REALLY REALLY FREE MARKET IN CARRBORO! (SAT, 12/5, 2:30 PM)

Bring something to share--take something you need!

Everyone is welcome at this monthly event at the Carrboro Town  
Commons, at which people share goods, services, skills, performances,  
stories, crafts, food, games, music, clothing, furniture, plants, and  
other resources.

Better than a yard sale, the Really Really Free Market has no price  
tags: there is no buying, selling, or exchanging involved. At this  
market, everything is strictly free. This event is a celebration of  
the cooperation and gift-giving that make life possible beyond the  
constraints of market capitalism: it is an afternoon when social  
status has nothing to do with what you own, and when giving and  
receiving happen directly rather than being administered through an  
institution or organization. As at other Really Really Free Markets  
across the U.S. and around the world, we aim to create and participate  
in a world in which resources are held in common, the community meets  
the needs of the community, and "free" means just that: really, really  
free.

Because there's enough for everyone
Because sharing is more fulfilling than owning
Because corporations would rather the landfills overflow than anyone  
get anything for free
Because a beautiful day outside together is better than anything money  
could buy
Because "free trade" is a contradiction in terms
Because no one should go without food, shelter, entertainment, and community
Because life should be a picnic, but it's up to us to make it one
BECAUSE THERE IS TOO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH
