Thurs. April 2nd 7pm
@ The Orientation Center 2129 N. Rockwell (behind the Congress Theater)

AREA Chicago invites you to join Kristen Cox (Fire This Time Fund and the Working Group on Extreme Inequality), Neily Jennings (North American Students of Cooperation), and Rachel Wallis (Other Worlds) as they report back from a recent gathering of hundreds of individuals from around the world who are engaged in envisioning new, more just ways of constructing our economy. Learn more about just what the "Solidarity Economy" is, hear about concrete Solidarity Economy projects that are flourishing in thousands of communities, and discover why Chicago should be excited about these new economic initiatives.

This event is party of AREA's irregular Infrastructure lecture series and coincides with the preparation for the next issue of our publication: AREA #8 Everybody's Got Money Issues to be released on May 1st.
