Welcome to Transactionland - we’re open for a bit of browsing and a spot of shoplifting from Thursday 21st May ‘til Sunday 24th May, for four days only, alongside a packed programme of events and workshops. All events are free! We’d love to see you.
Transactionland is a response to a collective fear of talking about the economy - both ‘The Economy’, and the many other economies small and large we interact with every day. It aims to be a brave space for exploring alternatives and having some irreverent fun with Very Serious Stuff.
Transactionland takes a firmly No Stupid Questions approach. This is a DIT (do it together) space. We are not experts.
Please remember that this is all an experiment. Ask questions, be patient, let us know what you think.
Opening Times
Thursday - Sunday
12.30pm - 5pm
+ Thursday evening board game night
+ Saturday morning Work Party for Cheats workshop
How to use this shop:
Come in for a browse, stay for a free tea or coffee from our one of a kind hot drinks checkout.
12.30-1.30pm on Friday & Sunday is doughnut hour! Join us to eat doughnuts and learn about the economy.
4pm every day: it’s Shoplift-o-clock! Attempt to sneak something from our shoplifting range into your pockets without being caught by our eagle-eyed shopkeepers.
Make your own cash, have a Big Economics Chat with a stranger (we’re all learning together), try your luck on the stock [cube] exchange, hang out, read, scratch a scratchcard. That kind of thing.
