Save The Complex in Dublin I'm getting behind the The Complex Cultural & Arts space. Stop the eviction! Please sign & share

The tenants of "The Complex" the brilliant arts space just off Capel St Stop are being evicted in January and the city can't afford to lose yet *another* cultural space.

Please sign & share the petition to save The Complex

I chose the Round Tower in Glendalough as I love visiting it. It was hard to choose just one place but this one stood out today!

An explanation of the fundraiser reads

"We are committed to keeping costs down for our artists. But our expenses are ever increasing. Your donations will help cover the costs of our venue, tables, insurance, posters, poster artists, workshops and more.

A further description of the fundraiser. Text reads "A 5-min, head and shoulders. Styles and colour will vary." There is another drawing similar to the two in the first image.
Text reads "You will receive an A5 PDF file via email which you can print yourself, and a jpg which you can use to post online (please tag DCAF and your artist).

Little Deer Comics Little Deer Comics is a Small Press Comics focused bookshop in Dublin, Ireland.

Little Deer is always on the cusp of ruin, but this is both the cost of business in Ireland and also being so niche that some of our stock cannot be bought anywhere else in the country. If people could make it a regular haunt for your physical media needs we will always keep our stock unique

We would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who stopped by DCAF and all of our extremely talented exhibitors! This was our most attended event EVER! DCAF is entirely run by a committee of artists volunteering their time. It takes a lot of work and planning so your supports means a lot to us

I'm in the Philippines for a month. I'm very lucky to afford my ticket and its my 2nd time doing so while being a freelance artist. Last time was easier as I had more work lined up beforehand but illustration work has been slow. If you like my art consider supporting me ko-fi.com/tinygreens
