event notice
Tuesday April 28, 2009 15:16 by seomra spraoi - seomra spraoi seomraspraoi at gmail dot com 10 Belvedere court, (off gardiner st) dublin

6 Social Centre Films; 2 seomra spraoi info nights: Tuesday 5th & 12th May 2009 7pm
Back in 2003/2004 darren from (then) direct action against apathy/(now) seomra spraoi spent several months roaming Europe visiting social centres, talking about social centres & making some films from the results. The films are from Belfast, Leeds, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, & Nottingham. By sharing the experiences of other social centres and seeing their practical examples hopefully these films will help inspire people in Ireland.
The spaces featured on the films include squatted warehouses, info-shops, cafes, community gardens, children’s spaces, theatre’s, music venues, dance studios, sauna’s, bars, dance studios, squatting info points, recording studios, print workshop, health centres, art studios, bike workshops, community centres, offices meeting spaces, art galleries, libraries, internet access points, free shops....Not all of the spaces are permanent, some are one night only squat cafés, temporary social space squatted 10 days. Some spaces are squats, some are legalised, & some co-operatively owned. All of the spaces are different & they're all pretty impressive.
The ‘premiere’ of these films was the first ever Seomra Spraoi event back in 2004, for those who weren’t around and those who can’t remember here’s a chance to see the films. There will be some time after the screenings for discussion, film maker shall be in attendance in the screening to field awkward questions…
