In order to support all those of you who have been resisting the onslaught of capitalism in the build-up to the annual celebration of consumerism, but who have succumbed in the very last minute - we will forfeit some of our well-earned holiday time to extend the shop hours:

Thursday, 20 Dec: 2-5pm
Friday, 21 Dec: 2-5pm
Saturday, 22 Dec: 11-4pm
Monday, 24 Dec: 2-5pm

So make it worthwhile for us and come and buy stuff...

"Codename Jenny" - film screening and discussion

So you think you're a radical activist. But do you have any idea what your parents were up to when they were your age?

"Jenny" finds out, just when the police are closing in on her and her friends. And she discovers that there's more connecting her to the alias she's chosen than she imagines.

Join us for a screening of "Codename Jenny" (Deckname Jenny) and a discussion about radical activism in today's world.

Friday, 7 December - 7pm at the Aro Valley Community Hall, Aro St.
