Folk University highlights the incredible diversity of knowledge and background of our Cortes community. It brings neighbours together to share what we know and learn from each other. Our fall programming began in late September and has included bike maintenance workshops, moss-identification walks, lectures and discussions about climate change, and much more – all free to whoever would like to learn with us. FolkU also collaborates in organizing and sponsoring various literacy-related programs around the community, such as the Cortes Book Club and regular writing workshops through VIRL. We’re passionate about learning and excited to be gathering in community, for community.

Donate to the Folk University fund to support neighbour-led learning and community literacy.
