Welcome. The Peace Communities is happy to offer you wonderful
fundraisers from our new online shop. These fundraisers will help to sponsor the second annual Radical
Media Convergence which offers free professional studio time,
sailboating and more for everyone. It also helps to sponsor gift
certificates for everyone worldwide who contributes blog entries,
videos and comments to the Peace Communities online community. Our shop
is called the FemPeacePower Mutual-Aid Shop because your mutual
aid support helps supports the Peace Communities as we network people
working for a better world everywhere. To see all our fundraiser items
please visit our FemPeacePower Mutual-Aid Shop by clicking here.
We seek a homeowner who would allow us to use their home as an ofice space for one year. We would only use the space less than 41 hours per week and those hours would be chosen by the Landlord. Please contact us if you are interested.

The Mission of the OLYMPIA F.U.N. CO-OP(OFC) is to foster creativity and inclusiveness. The OFC cultivates
programs and activities; provides exhibition and performance space that
encourage participation, appreciation and awareness of food, art and music in Olympia.
We welcome people from all over the world to become members, however the farmers whom we promote and publicize are located here in the Olympia area.
Through art, music, education and community outreach, the OFC endeavors to
provide an environment in which creativity and collaboration are
combined to enhance and encourage involvement.
Exposure to the arts is beneficial. The OFC strives to increase
this exposure by working with local artists and volunteers to introduce
more outlets for art and music based resources to the community.
In addition, it is the desire of the OFC to create an organization that
is not structured in the traditional co-op methods of endless meetings
and committees, as we realize such meetings often cause administrative
control of a co-op to fall into the hands of people who have the
educational and financial luxury of prioritizing paperwork and endless meetings above community outreach with marginalized people, musicians, artists and local farmers. In short, we want to have Fun while creating a better world!
We hope you will join us!
In coming full circle, the OFC wants to provide artists with a
forum for expression while giving members of the community an
opportunity to participate and learn about the arts and local farmers.
