StarCommunity is an intentional community distributed across many locations, but centered on two large group houses (StarCommunityHouses) at the south end of Seattle. StarCommunityMembership is fluid and somewhat undefined; if you participate frequently in StarCommunityGatherings, you'll generally be considered a member.
Some of StarCommunity's AreasOfEmphasis include:
Star Community's founders drew their inspiration from TheFederationOfDamanhur, Tamera, and especially NewCultureSummerCamps. A major idea was "How could we take the culture we experience at SummerCamp? and live it all the time?"
We model StarCommunity's structure as a LayerCake in which every layer, from basic economics to spirituality, supports every other.
