~ SUNDOWN SCHOOLHOUSE ~ opens Autumn 2006 as the first series of Sundown Salon events conclude. The social engagement, experimental energy, diverse community, counter cultural tendencies, playfully serious nature and collective spirit of those gatherings will be the seeds of the school.

Sundown Schoolhouse is a geodesic home based educational environment with an activist mission. In the classic model of the schoolhouse, students of many ages {18 to 80...} come together to study a diversity of disciplines. It is a school for the gently radical design, literary, performing & visual arts.
