About us
We are a year-long experiment of a "micro-venue" and clubhouse in Whakatū Nelson. A “third space” that:
- Comfortably holds 10 to 80 people
- Has a small stage and movie screen
- Has all-ages events
- Progressive activist meeting spaces
- Is self-run, self-funded, anti-capitalist and completely independent
It does not compete with current indie bars and events. It will also not be the end-of-the-night destination. It is the place in-between.
Run as a not-for-profit run by volunteers and funded primarily by membership fees.
Members form the heart of our space, getting free entry to
weekly events and heavily discounted rates for weekend and major
events. They are also able to book the space for
their own events. You'll receive invitations to all community
discussions and have a voice in shaping our direction.
And at night
,access to a venue hosting Intimate band performances; Youth run gigs;
Niche DJ sets; Cult film nights; Standup comedy; Board game and D&D
nights; potluck dinners, LAN parties; hiphop and chess nights; poetry
slams ….
