Supermercator - crowdfunding

Supermercator, a volunteer based place where people can meet without an agenda, where ideas can take shape, talents can emerge, and unexpected things can happen.

For over four years Supermercator has been the slightly unruly living room of Mercatorplein. In these years there have been many innovations and activities, from live drawing sessions to music acts and movie screenings, poetry readings and art workshops. Supermercator have always been fond of unlikely encounters, wild ideas, small experiments and interdisciplinary cross pollination- and have tried to keep their doors open to all of it without becoming commercial, conceptual or terribly serious.

Crowdfunding
Each week the community grows and so does their passion to keep it all going. While they have all the heart, it also takes financial breath to run this place. Even the most idealistic living room needs to pay its bills. That's why they started a crowdfunding to get financial help to write a new chapter and transform Supermercator into a place that can welcome people everyday as a warm, bustling daytime café.

The café will be serving breakfasts and seasonal lunches for every appetite and pocket. A place to land, slow down, meet and work, where vinyls are played, homemade pickles are sold and you can enjoy a classical music listening session on a Sunday afternoon. And when the evening falls the tables make way for films, drawing sessions, small performances, philosophy wanderings- and whatever else the neighbourhood dreams up.

The café will be the beating heart and the financial backbone of their cultural programme, allowing them to keep doing what they love without making authentic expression a luxury.
