The Peace Pole Playhouse ~

a Kid's Cottage at the Strawbale Studio land

Location: NE of Oxford, Michigan, one hour north of Detroit on 50 acres of beautiful wooded rural land.

This small (8'x10') "Start-to-Finish" structure will give participants the opportunity to experience all the aspects of a natural building within a relatively short time period. It will include a rubble trench, dry stack stone foundation, round pole framing, strawbale walls covered with an earthen plaster, and a thatched roof. It is being planned for June, July, and August. Individuals or families can come for one, some, or all of the sessions. During some sessions, children are welcome with adult supervision. Overnight accomodations will be available, with plenty of space outdoors to tent, and some indoor space.

Schedule for the Oxford Kid's Cottage .

The playhouse got its name from the Peace Pole (a few meters away) -- a oblisque with "May Peace Prevail on Earth" in a variety of languages including braille and sign language.
