Seomra Spraoi is an autonomous social centre. We are a collective of different people with different backgrounds and interests working together in co-operation with a common purpose, to create a non-comercial space with an atmosphere of tolerence and respect, and a sense of community.
The centre is run on libertarian principles and participatory democracy, it is independant of any political party, business etc. and everyone involved has an equal voice in deciding how it is run.

We've been at 4 Mary's Abbey, just off Capel St (on the luas line) for 2 months now and although we've had lots going on, we haven't really taken the time to stop and celebrate and show it off!

how did the gig on Saturday go?

 

[Willie Willions]

Pretty good, no complaints by neighbours, loadsa cash-money made for the Seomra..!

 

[Corm]

Yeah, and the room is DEADLY. WAY better than any other current venue in Dublin. Couldn't hear a peep out of it on the street. If there's to be regular gigs there it'll be amazing. Here's hoping that's the case, and hoping that people will respect the space re: cans, street nonsense, etc.

Oh, who's playing at the trad night?

 

[Carlow Punks!]

Oh, who's playing at the trad night?

you...
you and your spoons

Oh, who's playing at the trad night?

[Pat Pockets]

i think i'll be campin in seomra sproai for the weekend.

whats the caberet all about?

 

[ClareB]

The cabaret starts on Sunday at 7.30pm. There's musicians and comedy stuff and burlesque I think.

There are a good few people involved but there is one main woman organising it. I went to one of her cabarets years ago in Taylor's Hall and it was really class, hiliarious, witty and very entertaining. It will be different from any other things on before in Seomra Spraoi I think. Variety is great.

The poster says its 15 euro in. We all got a huge shock about that. But I think the deal is that obviously if you don't have it you won't be turned away. If you've been hanging out at the whole weekend there will be some large discount. The exact mechanics of the cheaper rate in hasn't been worked out. There will be some rich people attending so they'll pay the 15 euros and think they're getting a bargain. It will be a deadly night I think.
O yeah, its a fundraiser.
