A Curriculum for Life Folk School Interest Meeting – Lamplight
DATE: Tuesday, November 17
TIME: 6:30 – 8:00 pm
LOCATION: 243 Bennett Dr, Guntersville
DETAILS: Sick of doomscrolling? Interested in taking up a new craft, discussing solutions to local issues, hearing local history, or just making new friends?
Folk schools were invented in Europe in the 1800s so that regular people could learn from each other and keep their traditions and culture alive. No grades, no tests, just neighbors teaching neighbors. The Sand Mountain Cooperative Education Center (who have been running Lamplight Summer Camp in Guntersville since 2019) got a grant to start a folk school right here in Marshall County. We can help you get money for your first class. What would you do if you had a budget, a beautiful property on the lake, and 20 friends?
Come to the interest meeting on Tuesday, November 17th to learn more about the folk school. Check out our website for more information.
