The Taos Peace House and Infoshop is one of a growing number of
progressive activist infoshops and peace centers. The global coordination office of Food Not Bombs started the Taos Peace House with a grant from Ben and Jerry's Foundation. The Taos Peace House continues to support the Saturday Food Not Bombs vegan meal at the Taos Plaza from 2 to 4 PM. We are still organizing actions for peace, social justice and the earth. The Taos Peace House is also the home of the global coordination office of Food Not Bombs helping start and support new chapters, organizing tours and Food Not Bombs Gatherings. If you would like to support the Taos Peace House you can mail donations made out to Food Not Bombs to P.O. Box 424, Arroyo Seco. NM 87514
A peace house and infoshop
is a storefront or social center that serves as a node for the
distribution of radical and progressive information, typically
in the form of books, zines, stickers and posters. Infoshops often
serve as a meeting space and resource hub for local activist groups.
The Taos Peace House and Infoshop will provide zines,
books, music, and information about how to create an alternative
society based on peace and equality. Your support is needed.
The Taos Peace House supports many local projects like Food Not
Bombs, Indymedia, Food Not Lawns, and other progressive
activities. We are growing food, organizing the registry of land
with water rights to help feed Taos County.
The worldwide network infoshops has provided a place for people
to connect with other activists and plug into local and global
activities and information. Like the other infoshops The Taos
Peace House and Infoshop provides literature, lectures, videos,
cultural events to foster peace, social justice and respect for
the environment. The public can also get uncensored world news
as well as the latest information about how to support local and
global protests and campaigns. We have been contacting progressive
publications requesting bulk orders. Please let us know of any
publications we should carry. We will also host workshops on many
issues such as alternative energy and transportation, democracy
and the use of Formal Consensus, organic gardening and natural
medicine, popular media, event, tour and campaign planning, drumming,
puppet making, radio production and vegan cooking. We are planning to set up a
45 watt FM radio station and website to provide information to
the community about efforts to end the wars and create a sustainable
future. This summer we are setting up an outdoor stage, oven,
grill and green house to start vegetables. Along with t-shirts,
books and bumper stickers we will have hemp items. These are just a few of the great opportunities
available.
