For this month’s ReSkilling series we focus upon Urban Preparedness and DIY Holiday gift making. Arc Ra will open with a cosmic orchestra led by Brooke Hamre Gillespie, featuring crystal singing bowls and percussion. Evolver is committed to offering our community ways to be safe and prepared in all situations. ReSkilling sessions will include practical home maintenance, proper rope tying techniques, what to pack in your emergency go-bag, and other skills for urban thriving.

DIY it up this holiday season with homemade gifts Learn to make your own baskets, lip balm, and dehydrated snacks. Bring a plain T-shirt to the event to dye with natural colors using coffee, tea and beets, then cut it in to something sexy and suiting for each family member. Save money and valuable resources while creating meaningful gifts during this giving season. Bodywork and hair feather extensions sessions will be available to participants.

All of this takes place at The Commons, a hub for community sustainability in NYC. Stay tuned for the exact schedule.
