AN INVITATION

The world is being born anew - in just the last few weeks 3 million have demonstrated against Berlusconi in Rome, 500 000 in Barcelona against Capital and war, hundreds of thousands take part in the Popular Assemblies in Argentina as resistance to Neo-Liberalism and the IMF grows and many thousands have protested against the War on 'terror'.
Resistance to the New World Order is growing at an astonishing rate.

The Anti-Capitalist movement is begining to develop beyond street demonstrations the 80 000 that took part in the World Social Forum in Brazil and the thousands that will partcipate in the European Social Forum in November in Florence show that the idea that 'Another World is Possible' can be made a concrete reality as a new left begins to emerge on a global level.

We are writing this email to invite all artists, designers and cultural workers to partcipate together in two forthcoming demonstrations both within one week of another that will we hope build and strengthen the anti-capitalist movement in this country.

On April 24th some 2000 of the top corporate fat cats will meet in the Royal Albert Hall to discuss 'The impact of Globalisation' their keynote speaker will be Dr. Henry Kissinger, a coailition of groups will attempt to blockade this conference, to show the profiteers and war criminals that they are no part of our vision of a new world.

The next week Mayday will take place on May 1st we want to take our creativity on to the streets of the capital during the day and come together later to help create a carnival atmosphere in Trafalgar Square where are united rally will bring together, peace and anti-war campaginers, socialists, trade unionists, anti-capitalists to celebrate our movement and say no to War and Privatisation.

We hope not only to be part of the biggest celebration in many years here in the UK but to network all interested groups and individuals to build resistance to neo-liberalism in the arts in this country and to mobilise people for the European Social Forum later in the year.

We have organised a meeting to kick the process of getting ready for these two events on:

SUNDAY 7 APRIL (this sunday) 7pm Royal Festival Hall (ground floor to the left of bar, we will a mayday poster on the table for identification)

This is an open meeting, please bring along any ideas/proposals/energy and creativity.

ANOTHER WORLD IS POSSIBLE!

PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL
