Feb 3rd Film 69 Ungdomshuset (English Subtitles)

Call Out for November Event Submissions at 38 Blood Alley Anarchist Space

38 Blood Alley is organizing another month of events and were looking for more ideas for any kind of event and submissions, if you would like to do your own. Send us an email, Facebook us or come to any of our events. Also email us if you want to help with events and maybe join our collective.

We are interested in hearing proposals by anyone wishing to use the space for public events or projects.  They need not be explicitly anarchist so long as they enhance our capacity to realize ourselves on our own terms, without seeking permission or mediation with those in power.
