Anarres is a collectively run anarchist free space and event space, that strives to create a culture of self-sufficiency and mutual aid.
From 1895-1904, The Firebrand existed as an anarchist newspaper started by a family of farmers in Portland, Oregon. Along with serving as a radical hub of the West Coast they promoted civil disobedience, free love and women's rights. As the newly formed Firebrand Collective we hope to pay homage to our political ancestors and keep the candles lit with our passion for freedom, equality, art and education.
The Firebrand Collective has opened a radical hub in North or Northeast Portland called Anarres Infoshop. The infoshop is intended to serve as an inclusive social and political multi-use center, available for people living in the city to utilize for their projects and needs. This will also function as an archival library for music, radical literature, and information about resources in the city.
In addition to being a physical location for groups to meet and for access to information, Anarres will also be an all-ages music venue, event space, and social center. Anarres Infoshop strives to maintain a political atmosphere that stands in opposition to capitalism, white supremacy, patriarchy, and other systems of oppression and hierarchy. The infoshop aims to create a space that meets the needs of our community while also focusing on the needs of those most affected by systemic violence.
