Open day as in open
December 1st., 12 noon to 4pm.
CCA is at 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow.
The Electron club is a space at the CCA
that is home to a whole variety of people and ideas. Started as a
computer/electronics/artist Open Source software lab it soon expanded
into many areas of cultural diversity and many have little to do with
computers. You are just as likely to bump into a Wobblie as you are a
computer hacker. If you are an artist, techie, nerd, or your bag is
community activism or you are just interested in life, come and take
a look. We are open to the public. Anyone can join. Its free.

COMMON GOOD AWARENESS PROJECT
CGAP was set up to create awareness of Scotland's Common Good Fund, a whole bunch of assets, art galleries, schools, town halls, parks, that are publicly owned. Many of these assets have disappeared, have been lost or stolen over the years due to a lack of awareness that they even exist and maladministration by those whose duty is to protect the fund for the benefit of the public. Find out more and about the common good and the Farmhouse Trust, a Common Good project in Govan to create a independent resource centre whilst experiment with off grid technology eco building and gardening along the way.
