Date: 25th of July to 1st of August 2020 + possible 2 extra days up to the 3rd of August
L'Agape officially ends on Saturday, August 1st. But we are offering all participants the opportunity to stay up to two days longer, until Monday, the 3rd of August. During the extra days, time will be free for discussions, walks, creative activities, debates and anything else you wish to do. You can leave at any time between the 1st and 3rd of August. However, be aware that the fees only cover the expenses until the 1st. An additionnal (modest) contribution may be necessary in case you decide to stay longer (only for food).
Schedule: To be announced
Location: Mézeyrac (France)
Mézeyrac is a tiny, cute village in the middle of the (exctinct) volcanoes of the Auvergne (France). Nearby towns are Présailles and Le Puy-en-Velay. The conference will take place in a country house which was once part (or, more precisely, the stables) of the estate belonging to the local duke.
Travel information:
The best thing is to first come to Lyon (by plane or by train).
Then travel to Le Puy-en-Velay by train. There is a direct local train (TER) from the station Lyon Part-Dieu to Le Puy-en-Velay which takes a bit more than 2h.
From Le Puy-en-Velay, we will organize a minibus to the country house!
Meals:
We will hoard enough food for a one-week siege. All breakfast and lunches are vegetarian, and a vegetarian option is available for dinners too. All the pleasant chores of cooking and washing-up will be nicely shared in an anarchistic self-governing way.
Fees: € 150 (to be paid in advance)
We are receiving support from the family which lends us the house for free. The price has therefore been set at 150 € which will include food and minibus transport from Le Puy-en-Velay to Mézeyrac. For those not supported by their institution, funding is available for the conference fee and for travel expenses, ask in the subscription form.
