Develop a sanctuary-workspace that attracts powerful, self-reliant creatures from the outskirts who are eager to sculpt an intentional, vibrant, and delightfully surprising reality together.
On a basic level, we want to make a cool art / maker space where members have access to tools and facilities they couldn’t wrangle on their own, and share resources / skills together.
On a deeper level, we’ve got IDEAS.
Missions:
Collective Stewardship: Investment in efforts that encourage collective ownership and caretaking of this community project with focus on conservation, safety, equality, judiciousness, discretion, and accountability.
Personal Sovereignty: Each individual owns and has the deepest insight into their own world. They carry the responsibility to actively manage that world, and their impact upon and connections with the worlds of others.
Mutual Aid: Cooperation, resource sharing, and compassion create a world in which it is nicer and easier to live.
Curiosity: Openness to exploration and experimentation, and an attitude of grace towards unintentional results.
Transmutation: Our world is richer and more satisfying when we manifest our inner will into creation and change.
Methods:
Good Faith: Approaching each other with unveiled intent, and defaulting to an assumption of the same from our neighbors.
Integrity: Conviction to adhere to our values, particularly when that is difficult to do.
Discernment: Careful assessment, foresight, prudence, and timeliness of action.
Initiative: Taking action to realize our goals and execute our processes.
Tenacity: Resilient drive to push through adversity.
