Free Market

Sun, 07/03/2010 - 2:00pm - 5:00pm

Come to an afternoon market where everything is free!

Bring along any unwanted but working stuff to donate to others, then look around and see if there is anything you want. We'll have labels so if any item has an interesting story you can write it down and let the new owner know. We'll have tea, coffee, cake and music - so drop by!

This event is organised with Flocklocal (The new website for casual volunteering, http://www.flocklocal.net/ ), The Forest Cafe (Arts, community and events space in central Edinburgh, http://www.theforest.org.uk/) and Freegle (The Email based site for passing on unwanted goods, http://www.ilovefreegle.org/ )

WHAT

Old Hat Books is a Radical Book and Hat Library. It is based in the Front of Room at the Forest Cafè.

The Library is full of Radical Books and Hats which anyone can borrow.

The Library is collectively run and anyone can get involved.

Lots of the books and hats are donated … and lots were collectivized (which means that people put their books here temporarily for others to read).

We want the Library to be a community shaped alternative resource for the dissemination of radical thought and radical hats!

We are used to organize several open Readings with tea parties … Fundraiser shows and lots of workshops like Calligraphy, Letter - writing and Creative writing … come to enjoy them!

DONATE

All the books in the library have been donated or "collectivised". We need your books too!
"Collectivised" books will still belong to the person who donated them but will live in The Library for others to read untill the original owner wants them back.

Tarnation:
Directed and written by Jonathan Caouette
(from wikipedia)
The film was created by Caouette from over 20 years of hundreds of hours of old Super 8 footage, VHS videotape, photographs, and answering machine messages to tell the story of his life and his relationship with his mentally ill mother Renee. It was initially made for a total budget of $218.32, using free iMovie software on a Mac. (As an early supporter, film critic Roger Ebert notes, $400,000 more was eventually spent by the distributor on sound, print, score and music/clip clearances to bring the film to theaters.[1]) The film went on to win awards including Best Documentary from the National Society of Film Critics, the Independent Spirits, the Gotham Awards, and the LA and London International Film Festivals.
