squatted community centre to open - Upper Gardner Street (Brighton)
RAY OF SUNSHINE
Against gentrification... and for the commons! Today (12th) will see the opening of a squatted community centre in Brighton, Upper Gardner St, North Laines. The centre aims to be open during the street theatre festival over the weekend. It will be an autonomous, drug-and-alcohol-free, centre for workshops, parties, music and happenings. The building is the old Ray Tindle Centre - which was closed three years ago so half of it could be turned into yuppy flats, while the rest remained empty. The centre has an obligatory wishlist of tat - including art supplies, curtains, people with positive energy and their own tea bags. So come along and make it happen.
