ARTFUL is home to a number of people with disabilities and renovating our buildings restrooms is a high priority for our organization. Please consider attending our new collaborative’s first major fundraiser on May 31. You can get your tickets, or make a donation here: coventrypeacecampus.org/events/the-art-of-community-fundraiser/Why do we need to renovate our building? And why do we need your help? Because... of bathrooms like this! When touring our building recently, the team from IFF (the group conducting our Facility Feasibility Study) couldn’t get over the “design” of our bathrooms, especially this one which is our main public restroom. The Owner’s Rep on the team said “In 40 years of assessing facilities, I’ve NEVER seen one with a backwards toilet”. We’d very much like to put in a forward facing, handicap accessible toilet. 🙂 You can help by attending our upcoming fundraiser on May 31!

Do you know what the 10 Principles of Burning Man are?The 10 Principles (10P) of Burning Man, were crafted as a reflection of the community’s ethos and culture as it has organically developed since the event’s inception in 1986. Join Coventry PEACE Campus on May 31, 2019 for a fundraiser featuring Burning Man Co-Founder Michael Mikel (M2). The discussion “M2 on the 10P” will educate us all on the true meaning of these principles. The event, The Art of Community: A Discussion with Burning Man Co-Founder Michael Mikel,” is a unique opportunity to learn about the “10 Principles of Burning Man” and how they can apply to permanent communities and placemaking.
