News from Disgraça, Lisbon https://disgraca.com/ : as you may have heard, after 9 years of horizontal, autonomous, anti-authoritarian mischief, we’re making an effort to buy Disgraça!
It all started on 11 September 2015. Atop one of Lisbon’s hills, the doors of Disgraça opened in a former school. From the vapid white walls, from the empty, echoing rooms, from the multitude of wills that converged in that place, this restless project blossomed. Walls fell, walls rose, walls were scribbled on. And as if it were a spring of insubordination from the depths of the city’s subsoil, we materialised, room by room, each one’s community potential. Moved by common dreams, desires and needs, we built a canteen and community space, a library, a DIY concert hall, a workshop where chaos reigns, a rehearsal room and a screen printing room, a gym (the tidiest place in the building), the free shop Desumana, and, from the memory of an empty shop front, a cosy anarchist bookshop – Tortuga.
