Hey All,
I am sending this out to all of you crazy people who have frequented Abundant Sugar. As you may know we have had a change of the guard here and we are in need of finding new roommates. As of the first of the month it will be just Aaron G and I. Aaron is also in love and (with blessings) is spending more and more time with his honey in Central America. All indicators say that I will be directing a film in the coming months and will not be in a position to run everything as we are accustomed.
Considering my options on maintaining Abundant Sugar, I can post again on tribe, fall back to looking for strangers on Craigslist or rethink things completely, maybe sublet to some other group or bail. I hate to let it go so...
If any of you have any leads on people looking to move or have ever dreamed of living outside the lines, or have any creative thoughts, please let me know. Total rent is 4k a month plus utilities and cleaners.
As you know the place is magical. I have included my last posting to tribe below. Please feel free to send it along to your various families and friends, classes, groups. playmates.
peace,
Patrick
Chemistry is Everything!!
Abundant Sugar is losing it's XX chromosomes and we are radically out of balance. We need balance!
KJ and Caylee are moving on to greener pastures, leaving spots open to live at Abundant Sugar.
As many of you know, Abundant Sugar is an incredible artist loft space dedicated to gracefully fostering and nurturing creative and social energies to create a unique space that is safe, grounding and empowering for those that pass through the space.
Communal in nature, it is a household first for those that live there. It needs to provide a safe and stable place for the inhabitants to be able to project the presence that we do. To that end, we function as a family. Communication carries the day, trust is paramount and chemistry is everything. We share a lot, help each other and encourage each other to burn as brightly as we were meant to. We are stronger as individuals because of our commitment to each other.
In many ways, Abundant Sugar was modeled and refined after a Burningman theme camp model, and it works. We open our doors to a larger communal family that embraces what we aspire to do and generates a powerful social structure and creative cross pollination designed to make dreams come true. These people gather, share ideas and join forces to create incredible magic. They also help maintain and manage the place.
To live at Abundant Sugar calls for participation in the dream. Not a passive place, it calls for one to choose life, and it delivers in return. It is the perfect place for someone who wants to propel themselves forward creatively. Through the interaction of the community we support, the individual's potential is exponential. New connections are made, opportunities offered, extraordinary life experiences are manifested. All the resources of Abundant Sugar are available too those that live there. We have a fully equipped tool shop, a sprung dance floor with 22' ceilings and rehearsal mirrors, a video projection theater, pa sound system, large kitchen, tons of parking, tons of storage, private office space, internet, a dozen sofas, acres of fun fur, -oh...and an awesome tree in the living room.
While the rent is not a lot by LA standards, and certainly not for what is available at Abundant Sugar, it is imperative that those who live here are able to support themselves, pay rent and not be an additional drain on the place. The housemates pay the rent and utilities. Money brought into the space by anyone else using or renting the place goes into maintaining and improving the facility, paying a weekly house cleaner, buying toilet paper and compact flourescent light bulbs, etc. Rent is rent, just like anywhere else. No big deal.
If this sounds like you, if you think you would like to live outside the box then we encourage you to get in communication with us. We are open to any conversation, including a couple (there is the possibility of joining rooms into a suite).
Give us a shout.
