-One World-One Love-

Gathering under the midnight sun new moon 11 june – full moon 25 july.

– Seed camp starts ca. 15 may

We the people of Karlsøya want to invite all the people and tribes of the earth to our beautiful this summer 2006 to exchange wisdom and experience that can contribute to positive changes in our society.

We want to give man/womankind hope that our dreams and visions help: and that together our collective consciousness motivates us to build a better world. At the same time we want to celebrate

We want people to open their hearts and minds and recognise that life is far too short to focus on our shortcomings. Instead we want to look to the future and work together creating this very future.

Together we can realize that to give and receive love is life’s most magnificent gift.

Our common love for “Mother Earth” is reflected in our everyday deeds and doings.

But capitalistic power would like us to give in to materialism and the power of money.

We can only buy temporary “happiness”. We must not become blind!

We must be aware! In the interest of money, money and more money we are raping the earth and ravaging the sea. We are exploiting man/womankind’s common/shared resources globally! It doesn’t have to be like this. And that is what our festival is about.

We have never been so knowledgeable and yet so unaware of that which is happening. We need to concentrate on the fellowship of our globe and the coming generations that will inherit the earth. Our children’s grandchildren’s children have the right to fresh air, clean water and an unpolluted earth.

The theme for our festival this summer is reclaim. We will reclaim that which belongs to the people. By reclaiming we will protest increasing capitalism, privatization and alienation. We will express an ever increasing and most critical need for we the people to demand that which is rightfully ours: the right to the land and waters, the right to participate in defining
public principles and the right to express ourselves through popular culture.

We would like everyone to actively participate in this happening. We believe that each and everyone has something to contribute.

From the new moon on 11 june to the full moon 25 july there will be workshops and culture sharing all the time,if you would like to hold a workshop or something you are free to share with everybody Music and other cultural events take place all the time, because there is no program and to time setting.

Together by combining our skills and resources we can make this happen: from digging latrines, setting up the kitchen, preparing for and participating in the workshops, feks. to create a children’s village. The final days we need help in restoring the festival area. Let us all be with in making sure that we leave the area as we found it.

Take with tools such as axes and saw’s. Bring your own bowl and plate and your own cup . Bring food for sharing and for the kitchen. face paints, toys and games, music instruments, and whatever else you feel will enrich our gathering.

Take with a tent, a tipi, a lavvo, with place for many. Take with sleeping bags and other necessary camping equipment. Share, share share

Please dont bring alchol and hard drugs. The temperature can be anywhere from 8-25 degrees C… Be prepared.

Come one, come all and join us in our celebration of yet a new beginning!!
