Welcome to the ABC Treehouse in AmsterdamRemember that childhood treehouse? You mainly went up there to be with your friends, away from your parents. Climbing the ladder into the tree, you could stand there and look out beyond the leaves to see the world and the state it was in. Together with your pals you could plan to save it, change it or forget it. It was a refuge, it was a launch pad. It was a place where you could express yourself.The ABC Treehouse presents artistic, literary, and political projects which nurture dialogue and cooperation within the Dutch and multicultural community. It is supported by The American Book Center, one of the largest sources of American (and British) language books on continental Europe. Feed the roots of your being and explore the core of your creativity. first 3 upcoming events:Lamrim Meditation with Buddhist monk Gen Kelsang Namkhyen Sep 02, 2010 Courses Lamrim is a series of 21 meditations which contain all the essence of Buddha's teachings and which are arranged in a logical order.
