There are no public classes available at this time. But there will be a party on June 12th!
The members of Home Alive’s Board of Directors, together with the instructor collective, have decided to close as a 501(c)(3) organization and to lay the Home Alive program dormant. We are throwing a party to celebrate and commemorate our 17 years in the community, as well as to look forward together to the ways we can carry on the work and spirit of Home Alive. We hope you will be able to attend!
When: Saturday, June 12, 2010
Where: Hidmo, 2000 S Jackson St
Time: 7pm-midnight
What: Live music, food, a collaborative expressive arts opportunity, free stuff! Please contribute to our celebration by showing up, listening and sharing stories or memories about Home Alive. There will be open mic time and we want to hear from you!
Who: YOU! Hidmo is ALL AGES until 11pm
(If you'd like to help out with the party, please contact us at the email address below.)
As you may know, Home Alive closed our studio in the beginning of 2009 and continued to operate at a very minimal capacity while we successfully paid off our debt. On April 15, 2010, after weighing a variety of options over the last several months, the instructors and board members of Home Alive made the hard decision to discontinue operating as a 501(c)(3) non-profit. While this means dissolving our assets, we intend to make as much of our organization's amazing history and curriculum available as possible to the community (mostly via our website, www.homealive.org). A few instructors will remain available on a limited basis for consultations and workshops. They can be reached at homealive4eva@gmail.com.
The awesome work and movement-building that Home Alive has been a part of for many years continues to grow, and you can continue to support it! Check out local and national organizations like the Northwest Network, Creative Interventions, For Crying Out Loud, Feminist Karate Union, Seven Star Women's Kung Fu, Generation 5, Chaya, Queer and Trans Jailstoppers, Break the Silence, Communities Against Rape and Abuse, and Incite! Women of Color Against Violence, among others. Also, Home Alive will be leading a workshop at the US Social Forum in Detroit in late June.
We’re incredibly grateful for the support you've given us over the years. Thank you for being a part of the Home Alive community, and we look forward to seeing you on June 12! |
