Trade School Vancouver

   Trade School Vancouver is a community driven school that runs on barter.

   A few months ago, I put out a call for help on twitter to start up Trade School in Vancouver (if you don't know Trade School has locations around the world already: www.tradeschool.coop)

   Since then, our ragtag team of 8 has worked to make it a reality, and boy is it. We're just getting ready to start sending out a call for teachers to propose classes soon!

   @Zach Bulick and I collaborated on the mark, with the whole team contributing to the brand (they are some smart folks).

   The mark itself takes the tradition of a school crest and gives it a modern spin. We incorporated the waves of the BC flag, the bell of the global Trade School brand, and a triangle referencing our key purposes: Learn, Connect, and Share. Our personal triforce, if you will.

   If you're in Vancouver, I'd say you should follow along… because it's going to be pretty damn awesome.

   also: totally interested in discussing your experiences around setting this up. the concept is great, and I think would be a great addition to the scene in Seattle.

   @Graham Stinson Definitely! Hit me up any time. Seattle would be an awesome spot for this. We could start the Cascadia Bartering Educational System.
