This is all FREE.

This event is ran and supported by volunteers.

If you are a member of the RVK Tool Library and bring something to be repaired, please also bring a snack for our shared snack table.

***All donations will be used to take the volunteers for Ice Cream OR a beer, depending on how much we gather.
We can not guarantee everything will be repaired for sure, but the awesome volunteers involved in this project will surely try their best 😉

***SPECIAL EDITION!***

ALL ITEMS THAT CAN NOT BE REPAIRED WILL BE USED TO CREATE A SCULPTURE WHICH SHALL REPRESENT OUR CRITICISM ON OUR OVER CONSUMERISM WAYS AS WELL AS A REQUEST TO PUSH THE ‘RIGHT TO REPAIR’ AGENDA.

This event happens monthly at the RVK TL.
Hope to see you there!

Complex PTSD Lecture
Sep 22 @ 17:30 – 19:30

Pete Walker’s Complex-PTSD theory – What it is, how it works and ways to heal it

Pete Walker is an American psychotherapist who has specialised in the treatment of complex post-traumatic stress for over thirty years.
The lecture will mostly be based around his book ‘Complex PTSD – From surviving to thriving’ which outlines his theories about how CPTSD is formed, how it manifests psychologically, emotionally and interpersonally and his multi-dimensional approach to healing it.

This theory and it’s practical approach has been one of the corner stones in my own mental-emotional healing/growth for about 5 years and I want to share it’s main contents as well as some of my own experience with this work.
The purpose of the event is mainly to create space for education and discussion, not group therapy.

Some of the topics discussed will most likely be emotionally charged and potentially triggering for many people and I will do my best to make everybody feel as safe as possible. For example by stressing the importance of speaking from ones own experience and avoiding assuming other people’s experiences.

Among the topics discussed will be:
Trauma, triggers, emotional flashbacks, emotional violence, abusive/neglectful/dysfunctional parenting and family dynamics, different types of trauma responses, toxic-shame, guilt, anger, rage, grief and grieving, healing.

Open House: COVID-edition! / Opið Hús: COVID-útgáfa!
Nov 3 @ 16:00 – 18:00

{Íslenska fyrir neðan} Andrými Open Hours: COVID-edition!

Open Hours are back!

Do you feel like you need to get out of the house? Are you looking for a new book to read? Do you want to check out our freeshop full of clothes or are you just looking for a quiet place to work?

Come to the Open Hours! Because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we ask everyone to wear a mask while inside the house. Hand disinfectant will be available: please disinfect your hands when you arrive, before touching the books, etc. Only 10 people can be inside at a time and only 1 person in the Andspyrna Anarchist Library and 1 person in the Freeshop. 

There is a large room downstairs with tables, chairs, and armchairs; a kitchen where you can make tea or coffee; the library; freeshop; and two rooms upstairs: one with sofas and armchairs, and one with a table and chairs, ideal for working.

Looking forward to seeing you again!

Accessibility:

There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door).

The bathrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement. The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building). There is no bathroom on the ground floor.

Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral. The event takes place on the ground floor.

Andrými Opið Hús: Covid-útgáfan!

Opið Hús er tilbaka!

Finnst þér að þú þurfir að fara út úr húsinu? Viltu fá nýja bók til að lesa? Viltu skoða fríbúðina okkar eða þarftu rólegan stað til að vinna?

Komdu til Opins Húss! Vegna COVID-faraldsins biðjum við öll að vera með grímu inni í húsinu og spritta sig reglulega. Aðeins 10 einstaklingar mega vera í húsinu í einu og aðeins 1 á bókasafninu og 1 í fríbuðinni.

Það er stórt herbergi á niðri hæð með borð, stóla og hægindastóla, eldhús til að fá kaffi eða te, Andspyrna bókasafn, fríbúðin, og tvö herbergi uppi: eitt kosý herbergi með sófa og hægindastóla og eitt vinnuherbergi með borð og stóla.

Hlökkum til að sjá ykkur aftur!

Aðgengi:

Það er eitt þrep við hliðið að garðinum og svo fimm þrep sem leiða upp að aðalinngangi. Hvert þrep er 17sm hátt. Breidd dyra í húsinu er á milli 50sm (dyr að baðherberginu á efri hæð) og 80sm (aðaldyrnar). Dyrnar að fundarherberginu eru 75sm á breidd eins og flestar aðrar dyr í húsinu.
