What classes would you like to see this spring/summer??? What skills would you like to share? What types of classes would help grow more vibrant, self-reliant and mutually supportive communities? Part of creating a new world is resistance to the old one. Through this project, we want to contribute to changing the ways we learn and the ways we relate to each other.

We try to keep Free Skool firmly fixed in a gift economy and outside the stream of commerce. While some teachers may ask for a donation to cover materials, no one is turned away for lack of funds. 

We see Free Skool as a direct challenge and alternative to dominant institutions and hierarchical relationships. The project strives to blur the lines between teacher, learner, and organizer. Free Skool Santa Cruz is decentralized, with classes held in social spaces and parks.

We look forward to seeing your proposals for the 2023 Spring/Summer Free Skool calendar (May 1st – July 15th) – deadline for class submissions for part 1 is Monday April 10th (class submissions for part 2 open in early July). Link to submission form here —
