Dear all,

Casco would like to urge you to join the MARCH FOR CIVILISATION this Sunday and Monday. Most importantly we should show our PRESENCE on MONDAY 27 JUNE AT MALIEVELD IN THE HAGUE FROM NOON. If you are abroad, please join us in spirit. Our presence will stand for social, cultural, political values now under the threat by our current neo-liberal government in the Netherlands, as manifested in its austerity plan for the coming years of cultural and social welfare policies. We claim for a Commons, not for a free market survival game.

Sincerely,
Casco team


PS. Prior to the gathering in Rotterdam and/or The Hague, join us for two assemblies by Casco on Saturday 25 June:

11.00-13.00 'Assembly (The Grand Domestic Revolution)', GDR TOWN MEETING with Agency  (special location: Huis a/d Werf dressing room, Boorstraat 107, Utrecht)

14.00-16.00 'Real People, Where are You?' 2nd 'COHAB' assembly with Can Altay and Jeremiah Day at Casco.
