To celebrate our DIY community roots and the shortest day of the year, (from here on in we’re moving onwards and upwards into the light;) there was a day of workshops, bands, soundsystems, food, performance, subversion, films, projections, dancing…….in and around the asbo.

highlights included:- art and craft, percussion and unicycling workshops, radikal bass soundclash, many local and not so local bands, performance poetry, streetparty, performers…….As usual, people were adviced to 'bring what you wanted to find'.
