subVersion Summer Camp is a Do-It-Together series of gatherings and calls to action! MOST PROGRAMS EVENTS and MEALS are FREE TO THE PUBLIC. To help fund the camp you can donate and become a Camper and pin for $25, or become a Parent of a Camper for $100. ( or make yer donation at Co-Prosperity)
We have invited artists, educators, musicians, filmmakers, activists, designers, and workers of all stripes to converge in Chicago this summer to help us make posters, music, t-shirts and merit badges while we make friends, comrades, and plans. Let’s make camp.
Join us in Bridgeport, the Community of the Future (and beyond), for ten days of camaraderie, fun and resistance to the spread of fascist culture. subVersion Summer Camp will foster collective re-education through public conversations, workshops, classes and happenings. We’ll present a broad range of creative forms of protest, and participants will be able to choose their own solidarity adventure… kickball or tag, puppets or banners, ballots or stink bombs? Schedule is below.
Full schedule available here
