Announcing a new Meetup for Freegan.info's NYC Dumpster Diving Meetup!

What: Freeganism 101

When: September 28, 2009 8:00 PM

Where:
Chashama Gallery 112
112 W 44th Street
New York, NY 10036

An event especially for newcomers. Join us for a discussion on the basics of freeganism – why we reject the capitalist system and how we reject it. We'll discuss the wastes and abuses of our current society and why they happen, and explore some of the practical community alternatives we are trying to build. We'll talk about the well-known practice of dumpster diving and why it makes sense in our current situation, as well as the basics of how we go about recovering the massive amount of usable food and other goods that is wasted every day. After our discussion, we'll take a trash tour to explore the area's wasted resources. If you ever wanted to try dumpster diving but couldn’t bring yourself to do it on your own, join us for this workshop and tour.

At about 9pm we will leave Chashama Gallery, 112 W. 44th St. (between 6th Ave. & Broadway), for the trash tour. This event is part of Chashama's Every Day is Earth Day Exhibit.
