A event on Tuesday 28th October. The event starts at 20:00.
Exhibiting Artists
Maya Saravia - Maya Saravia is concerned with anything that moves, be it a body, a riot, a political idea or a religious belief. In love with the ephemeral and ecstatic occurrence of fire. Works with whatever medium available, from painting to pyrotechnics.
Raimi Harrison - Raimi is a Bristol based illustrator and artist who's featured work is pulled from a visual research project into craft practice within the Greenham Common Women's anti-nuclear Peace camp, her work contemplates community within political occupation and protest.
Pablo Garcia Contreras - Pablo is a Berlin based filmmaker from Mexico City whose film and video work explore the complexities of what makes us human–acts of care, love, defiance, and belief–drawing from his own encounters with movements of resistance both at home and abroad.

24 UK ACTIVISTS ARE IN PRISON WITHOUT TRIAL FOR OPPOSING GENOCIDE
We are the family and friends of the Filton24, all imprisoned in the UK for alleged damage of weapons in an Israeli arms factory, Elbit Systems, in Filton, Bristol.
The Filton24 are charged with taking direct action to disable weapons at a facility belonging to Israel’s largest arms manufacturer, Elbit Systems.
The weapons included drones currently being used in Gaza, which mimic the sounds of children in distress in order to draw civilians out to help, in order to kill them.
All were denied bail and some of our loved ones have been in prison for ONE YEAR awaiting trial, since August 2024. Most face nearly TWO YEARS in prison before they come to trial.

Note on donations:
The money is going to support political prisoners who are still in the clutches of the state. This money goes to things like correspondence, canteen, phone calls and maintaining the relationships they have with their loved ones. The prison themselves are denying loved ones their rights, abusing the detainees and intentionally isolating them as they prepare to take the fight directly to the UK courts against the genocidal arms industry.
Entry requirements: no age restrictions
