Sustainable Tompkins Community Gathering: Justice & Sustainability In Our Schools
Thu Feb 12 6:00 - 8:30 PM Unitarian Church Annex Dinner & Childcare Provided Sustainable Tompkins invites you to a monthly gathering on "Justice and Sustainability in Our Schools" on Thursday, February 12, from 6:00 - 8:30 PM at the Annex of the Unitarian Church, on 208 E. Buffalo St. near Aurora St., in downtown Ithaca. The free event, which will include dinner and childcare, will focus on justice and sustainability initiatives in our schools, what they have in common, and how citizens can support these vital but rarely linked efforts. Short presentations and inspiring video clips will be followed by learning/action circles where participants can focus on themes such as food equity and school gardens, health access, equity and sustainability curriculum, transportation equity, and the New Roots school. The evening will begin with a dinner that includes many local foods. Additional potluck offerings are encouraged and participants are also encouraged to bring their own table settings to minimize the clean up. Childcare is provided but please RSVP for this. For more information, to reserve childcare, or for disability accommodations, contact Elan Shapiro, at e...@sustainabletompkins.org, 607-275-0249. This event is the last in the monthly "Equity and Sustainability" series organized by Sustainable Tompkins, a citizen-based organization dedicated to promoting a more just and sustainable community. http://www.sustainabletompkins.org - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Earn your permaculture design certificate.
