Collective A Go-Go
Worcester, Massachusetts,
United States
 Collective A Go-Go is a small, fifteen year-old urban, secular anarchist community dedicated to an egalitarian and anti-authoritarian politics, consensus decision making and exploring more sane and ecologically sustainable ways of living. We live in a two-hundred year old farmhouse with attached barn on a few acres of mostly wooded land in a residential neighborhood that feels suburban/rural, is home to much protected woodland, a good swimming pond, etc. but is only a fifteen minute bike ride to the downtown of our mid-sized New England city.
We are committed to sharing decision making and the work that makes life go. We have a Do It Yourself ethic and engage in a wide variety of projects including organic gardening, cooking and heating with wood, bike culture, grease cars, making art and music, and involvement in the political and social life of our city and the world beyond.
We are currently seeking members.
