Festival
“This weekend is a summer camp, a laboratory, a rehearsal, a library, a playground, a concert hall; For what is possible, for active problem solving, for a future we aren’t afraid of, a future we wake up excited and ready for each morning, a new union and body, all amidst catastrophe: our moment of opportunity.”
This summer the festival will be at the Ignatius CSA intern farmhouse, a 10 minute bike ride from Downtown Guelph July 16-18 and we will be featuring to key note speakers, indie bands, campfire hootannanys, communal meals, discussion groups and workshops such as how to make a solar food dehydrator, simple DIY silkscreening, creating art synergy, wild edible walks, compost making, and how to keep your very own chickens!
For those interested in being core participants, staying for the entire weekend and being involved in all aspects of the festival, we are asking for a $20 suggested participant donation (though no one will be turned away if they are not able to pay this amount). For all others joining us for a day, evening or afternoon, there will be a pwyc donation model for each workshop/concert you wish to attend.
Confirmed Musicians: Maggie Claire Cross, Honest I’s, Natalie Amber, Beth Klapwyk and Seb Ramirez, Byron, Barn Owl Far From Rich, First Rate People, Ruffian Kings, New Wings for Words
Confirmed Workshops: How to Make a Solar Food Dehydrator by Natalie Boustead (AboutFace), Radical Christianity by Ken Dryhouft (The Dam), How to make a Worm Composter by Chris Miller (SCM), Good Consent for Sex & Intimacy by Brian Jeffery (Hamilton Freeskool), Wild Edible Field Walk by Seb Ramirez, Sprouting by Annie Richard, Silk Screening by Kaitlin Schwan, How to Keep Chickens by Amy, Intentional Community Discussion by Natalie Boustead and Friend, and Kingdom Economics by Nicholas Schuurman.
Things to Bring: Tent and sleeping gear (if you are staying the night), sunscreen/bug repellent, musical instruments, art supplies, pen & paper for note taking, snack food, sidewalk chalk, tarps (in case of rain), chairs/blankets to sit on, flashlights, first aid, stories to share at the campfire, lists of your favourite books/articles/music for sharing, and your pwyc registration fee which is recommended $20 for the weekend or $10 for Saturday. Leave your hairspray, bananas (mosquitoes!), alcohol and drugs at home.
Organizers: Along with us, members from the AboutFace Collective and the Dupont-Spadina Corner Collective are the main organizers. Workshop facilitators range from CRAFT, Student Christian Movement, Hamilton FreeSkool and more.

Hey There!
I would love to join the beansprouts for the weekend, likely between Friday until Sunday. Also, our band Little Birds Erotica (Chelsee Henebury, Lean Tokman, Maranda Cook) would happily play a set or some tunes around the fire. I would be able to help with food preparation at points throughout the festival. Looking forward to what sounds like a beautiful event.
