New Culture DC is a non-land-based intentional community of over a hundred people in the DC/Baltimore region. Our members are those who have experienced New Culture at an event, gathering, workshop, or at an intentional community based on New Culture, and choose to become part of our intense and intimate network.
NCDC sees community as a means to social change, and one of our goals is to encourage our members to live in ways which serve as models of healthy ways of relating to the Earth and to each other. We see our community as a means to produce a world without fear, violence, coercion, or sexual repression. We believe that there are several key components to realizing this vision: self-responsible individuals; mutual support, honesty and openness in interpersonal relationships, a realization that means determine ends, and a realization that the personal is political — that is, a commitment to personal growth and change.
We are the DC New Culture group. There are also local New Culture groups in Hawaii, Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, North Carolina, West Virginia, and Massachusetts; and there are intentional communities based on NFNC principles in Virginia, West Virginia, Washington State, California, Hawaii, and Oregon. To facilitate the community-forming and personal growth process, and to enrich our connections with each other, we hold conferences, workshops, and camps throughout the year, as well as many informal gatherings. Often, New Culture people will become housemates, forming a kind of mini-intentional community.

People become members of New Culture by attending our gatherings, connecting with other New Culture people, and choosing to embody the experiences and values that characterize New Culture. There is no formal process, but in most cases the strongest connections are with persons who have been to one or more major events (5-day events or longer).
Please email a note to [email protected] to get on the mailing list for our events, which occur throughout the year. Since we are a tribe, a community of the heart, rather than a land-based community, visiting our community is done by meeting other New Culture people, coming to informal gatherings, and having you join us at events … see our website and Facebook page for events and local gatherings.
