So you have a great idea, and you want to share it, but where will you find people to share with? If you can get to the Boston area for the April 18 and 19th 2009 weekend (perhaps you haven't yet scheduled your April Vacation?) then you should definitely check out Boston Skill Share, a community effort to help people get and share great ideas.
The Boston Skillshare is an annual volunteer-run, donation-based weekend event that brings people together to share practical skills. It's happening this year on Saturday and Sunday, April 18 & 19 at M.I.T. in Cambridge. Everyone is invited.
Looking for an overview of the weekend? Take a look at the Info page, pretty good place to start. Their Points of Unity, lets you in on their great mindset.
If you would like to lead a workshop, then check out the Workshop Submission Form. Maybe you just want to go and learn loads of cool stuff, so explore the workshop page, which will fill up as the event approaches.
Right now, we are looking for people to lead workshops. That means we need YOU to think of your favorite thing to teach and sign up now to participate. Anyone can lead a workshop about anything! Past skillshares included everything from making your own underwear to bike mechanics to yoga. Help make the world a more interesting and skillful place.
The Boston Skillshare aims to create a temporary space for people to share practical skills, which help us to live happily, creatively and sustainably. The emphasis is on action over theory, participation over talk. We want to live with enthusiasm, so let us learn with vigor!
So check it out and let us know what you think in the comments. Have you attended one of the previous
