Presentations
There is no one booked to present anything just yet - but feel free to contact Jason, Bruno, Emma, etc. to make it official - or just show up and wing it, for freedom's sake.

Bring them to Hakka. Why? Jason is developing the LeverMind Variety Show, including skits with his Santa Libertas character who will expound on freedom and truth in a series of catchy, clear, concise short videos. Ask if you'd like to help with this or other projects.
The Lions' Den
In the basement of Hakka, Jason is setting up The Lions' Den - Windsor Media Projects & Freedom Underground - a collaboration space and creative studio for animation, arts, audio-video, classes, creatives, editing, events, lectures, meetings, newsletters, podcasts, productions, recordings, screenings, workshops, etc.
And we hope to host WEFreedom meetings there soon.
Ask if you'd like to arrange an event or would like to help.
Exchange
We have not planned for a secret Santa this year, though it's a good idea.
We have not planned for a toy drive this year, though it's a good idea.
Folks are welcome to claim a booth to set up their hand-made stuff they'd like to sell. In the future we may host some bazaars.
Games

Other
If you have other ideas to bring to this or other events, let us know!
