TradeMarket, Nevada City and Grass Valleys local currency initiative, invites us all to take part in four consecutive Thursday – Participate, Discuss Learning evenings starting this Thursday, 7 P.M. at Summer Thymes Bakery in Grass Valley.

These what promise to be lively discussions, will be interspersed with evocative video clips gathered from recent films on the subject of money aired at The Magic Theater by the Social Forum Film Series.

Here’s a quote to get you thinking…

“The composite credit of private competitive traders, based as it is upon the actual exchange of goods and services, forms the only substance of money. The different national monetary units are merely various dilutions of this substance.” – E.C. Riegel (from a letter to the editor of the New York Times, 1949)

Where: Summer Thymes Baker, 421 Colfax Ave. Grass Valley

When: 7pm Thursdays: May 24, May 31, June 7 and June 14
