Galvanize! is a fundraiser at Bristol's Timbuk2 club with one solid goal - to provide a night of the fattest, freshest, funkiest beats for Bristol's discerning partyheads, whilst at the same time raising money and awareness for the Free West Papua Campaign ...the last two events have been so much fun we're goin in for round three - prepare to shake your ass for justice one more time!
New this time around is a top quality Galvanize RAFFLE! Check out the RAFFLE BLOG for full info and constantly updated list of prizes including art, music, clothing and more...
Everyone involved gives their time and talents for free, enabling 100% of profits to go directly towards helping free the people of West Papua from an illegal Indonesian military occupation. A catalogue of unforgivable human rights abuses and environmental desruction goes on with barely a whisper from our media or Government. It's time we all woke up and smelt the corrupt coffee.
