Ad Astra Student Cooperative

Lawrence, Kansas,

United States

The Ad Astra House is located on Kentucky Street in Lawrence, Kansas just east of the KU campus. We're a 10-person community of students, alumn, artists, and radio DJs. We hold weekly meetings to talk, maintain the household, organize things, often eat delicious vegetarian food, and sometimes plan events or other schemes. We make decisions based on consensus. We accept new applications gladly, with rooms usally opening in the summer but sometimes at the end of the fall semester as well.
