Or at least some of your hard earned dollars!
The Concert has been cancelled. All of the tabloid trailers for the riots have been filed. The 'Powers that Be' are planning a fence around Farmleigh House. The Elites are making their travel plans as are the protesters. The Army are practicing their formations and looking for Wombles in the bushes at the Curragh. Only one piece of the puzzle is missing - An Independent Media Centre to tell the story. We need help to create it. Come and have a look at the space available for the Centre this Sunday – help clean it up, talk about what could happen there and volunteer some time over the next month to make this thing a reality. Click here for more details on how to get involved and info on how to make a donation to the Mayday IMC.
Draft Timetable
Map and Plans of Centre
Clean up meeting
The Community Media Network have donated the use of a large building, right in the centre of Dublin, for use as a media centre. It has the capacity to house an independent cinema, a photography exhibition, workshops, computer lab – have a look at the plans below to get an idea of the scale of what is available to us..
A team has been working to put together a timetable of events – getting films for screenings, people to give workshops, sourcing photography and other material for exhibitions – have a look at the draft timetable for what is being proposed – there’s still space for you to fill.
Fixtures have been planned and equipment is being borrowed – but more is still needed. If you have access to stackable chairs for a week, a weekend or even a night – get in touch. If you can contribute a van for a few hours we’d love to hear from you. Anything we can’t borrow we’re going to have to hire – so rest assured any monies donated will be well used.
Finally – people are needed. Getting the building ready, stewarding, taking bookings for workshops, making / selling tea & coffee – there is loads of work. We are also going to be putting together a newsdesk and photography / video dispatch teams. Come along and learn or teach or help – whatever.
