Gears are turning and plans for the relocation of NIMBY are in the works.

« RIP NIMBY - April 1, 2004 to Sept 11, 2008.

Properties are being scouted, emails sent, plans drawn, and the old shop cleared out. Snook, the founder and manager of NIMBY, is excited about this opportunity for creating a new DIY space. He is seeing this as a chance to set the shop space up as he had always intended - and this time with the full support of the community and city of Oakland behind him. But the relocation of NIMBY will be no small feat. A considerable sum of money must be raised over the next few months to pay the remainder of the existing lease, and for the design, permitting, and building-out the shop space in the new building. Not to mention we have to transport unfathomable sums of crap from the old space to the new. Remember, giant art in the Bay Area doesn’t come from nowhere - it’s built at NIMBY.

You can help by making a donation of any size to the NIMBY Relocation Fund. The future of NIMBY depends on your support.
