Join us for remote exchange and Imagining a Post-Capitalist Future

Join us for remote exchange and collective imagining
This month artists Raman Mundair and Ailie Rutherford will lead us in collectively drawing a post-capitalist future. Then in May we are teaming up with Rumpus Room to create an online magazine with young activists

APRIL - POST CAPITALIST FUTURES - DRAWING WORKSHOP
This moment of global crisis and the Covid pandemic is likely to transform capitalism as we know it. While this is a difficult time for all of us, times of crisis can also open up space for new possibilities to emerge. It is in these times that large collective shifts in consciousness are possible and major shifts in political and economic structures can happen. We are already seeing lower pollution levels, reduced consumption and new mutual care networks. What else do we imagine happening that didn’t seem possibly before?

Monday 13th April 3pm
Join artists Raman Mundair and Ailie Rutherford to collectively imagine a post-capitalist future

This is no time to lose our nerve. The future will be determined by whoever is willing to fight harder for the ideas they have lying around - Naomi Klein makes the case for transformative change amid the global pandemic

MAY - YOUNG ACTIVISTS ONLINE MAGAZINE
Swap Market & Rumpus Room will be joining forces in May to create and publish content for an online magazine made with the young activists group. The Young Activists are a group of 14-24 y/olds based in Glasgow South that come together to discuss in peer groups political issues that matter to them and their communities.

There are plans for the digital magazined to be distributed around community spaces for those who are not able to access internet or digital content from home.

If you are a young person and are interested in getting involved you can contact rumpusroomteam@gmail.com or on instagram @rumpusroom_
