DATE CHANGE! LOCATION CHANGE!

Due to the exciting opportunity to have the film makers join us in March, we have changed the date for our March Movie Night to March 19th!

Location: The Sebastopol Grange Hall, 6000 Sebastopol Road (Hwy. 12 just east of the Chevron Station), Sebastopol 

Please join us for the screening of YERT, a fun and uplifting film about climate change and the environmental movement in the US. Joining us for the conversation following will be one of the film makers, Mark Dixon to tell us in person what it was like to make this informative and uplifting film.


"YERT (Your Environmental Road Trip): 50 States. 1 Year. Zero Garbage? Called to action by a planet in peril, three friends hit the road - traveling with hope, humor, and all of their garbage - to explore every state in America (the good, the bad...and the weird) in search of the extraordinary innovators and citizens who are tackling humanity's greatest environmental crises. As the YERT team layers outlandish eco-challenges onto their year-long quest, an unexpected turn of events pushes them to the brink in this award-winning docu-comedy. Featuring Bill McKibben, Wes Jackson, Will Allen, Janine Benyus, Joel Salatin, David Orr, and others."

Stay with us for our fun and lively discussion following the movie. Joining us will be some of our local enviro superstars to tell us about the good work that they do for our community and planet. Stay tuned for updates :)

 A Wisdom Council Discussion Group of Transition Sebastopol 

Calling All Elders, Earth Elders, Wannabe Elders, Soon-to-become Elders, or Interested Baby Boomers on up! 


The Elder Salon is a nonhierarchical circle of peers. We’ll introduce the discussion with some thoughts from an elder voice or thought-provoking instigator to kick off our own discovery of what it is WE think and believe about the topic; what WE want and need now and in our future; what WE think should be the course of action and attitudes as we progress into and through our older years

WHY: There are a lot of new ideas about aging, staying youthful in body and spirit, and our role in society and local life. What have our generational contributions been and what is left undone? What are our mistakes and triumphs?

Start: Mar 23 2012 3:30 pm

Friday afternoons at 3:30 at Coffee Catz, an informal gathering, usually outdoors, weather permitting. There has been a different assortment of folks at each one, usually 4 to 5 of us. We encourage you to try it some week.

Where: Coffee Catz, 6761 Sebastopol Avenue, Sebastopol

Drop in—arrival and departure times are loose.

First person there asks at the counter for the “Insurgent Elders” sign to put on the chosen table area so others can find you. You might check the far back room if the weather’s cold or wet and choose some shade if it’s warm outside. It’s possible no one would show up, but it hasn’t happened yet!
