along the theme "Demystifying Anarchism" or for your other (A) related
projects. After the AO, those remaining will split into teams and hit
up districts/ cities with your propaganda depending on each's interest
and comfort level.

Pinata smash begins at 6pm!

* This is an anarchist event. You don't have to be an anarchist to
come. Youre invited so long as you're fighting for a better world,
respect others, and respect the anti-authoritarian sentiment of the
event. Persons of all ages, body types, orientations, races, and
ability levels are encouraged to come. The event will include an
unattended child space; parents and kids are welcome. Animals OK!
