Our phone is temporarily disconnected. If you have tried to call recently and have not been able to get through, that is why. We are sorry for the inconvenience and are working to get the phone line restored. In the meantime email still works.

It's been a while since we've written an update. It's been a busy winter - and we have made a lot of progress getting back on track with having the space staffed regularly, though we still have a little ways to go to maintaining a flawless staffing schedule. We have a fantastic volunteer coordinator that has been taking up the scheduling for the last couple of months - and many of the improvements in that regard can be attributed to her dedication.

We've been doing weekly sandwich nights for the last few weeks that have been growing with each one. We love good food, and believe it's a great medium for bringing people together as a radical community. We hope to do more of these sandwich nights and hope you will spread the word, and encourage friends to come out and get a sandwich! We want to do these as a benefit for a different project every week - so if you are with a group that could use some modest fund-raising, please get in touch and let's see if we can work on something with you. We are one month away from the 5^th anniversary since opening our doors in Shaw. Holy smokes! Can you believe it's been 5 years since we opened and 9 since we started the project in 1999! It's been a hell of a ride.
