The convergence came to an end at 7pm yesterday.
We would like to send out a massive thank you to everyone who came down (over 100 people came from far away lands, such as France, Germany, Greece, Spain, Norway, Manchester, London, Bristol and Lewes) THANK YOU!
It was a great weekend where over 20 work shops and skill shares took place including, ‘Community responses to sexual violence’, ‘Squatters Legal Network’ (https://network23.org/squatterslegalnetwork/), ‘Women’s DIY health’, ‘Alternative communication’. On top of these we had speakers from Calais Migrant Solidarity, SQUASH, SMASH EDO, Stop Huntington Animal Cruelty (SHAC), Traveler Solidarity… and many more.
We would like to thank everyone that took time to put on workshops and organise discussion groups – they made the weekend an amazing thing to be a part of.
Big shout out to Zibabu /The Bucket Boyz who played on Friday night (http://www.myspace.com/thebucketboyz). Saturday night = beach party. And thank you to the Cowley club and Gee for cooking a full vegan BBQ on Sunday for everyone. The weekend ended with a game of Zombies vs. Humans in the basement (thank you Foucault).
We spent all day yesterday cleaning and then all left the building at 7pm. The convergence is now officially over and the building has become empty again.
S.N.O.B is waited with baited breath to see which city takes up the challenge next year (it’s actually not that hard) (GO ON!). It would also be really good to have a national event before September in preparation for the law change…if any group fancies taking that on we’ll be there!
Keep in touch, our email is snobaha@gmail.com, please send info about events and if you’re planning to come back to brighton drop us a call on 07583010898.
TA,
Some SNOBBERS X
