Spiral Community Hub

I like to think of Spiral more as a symbolic social hub that as an actual shop. The sign perched on top of their roof indicates that Spiral, in it’s shop form, is all about selling goods that contribute towards a socially, environmentally, and politically conscious and ethical world view. You’ll find handicrafts from different cultures near and far, along with a small collection of environmentally friendly, low impact innovative creations.
Spiral, the hub, serves a variety of functions. Several community organisations and activist groups hold their meetings there on a regular basis. Spiral is one of the drop off points for Food Connect, a local group who deliver food sourced locally (within 5 hours of Brisbane) to customers in an effort to support local farmers and industry and to help city folk reconnect with the source of their food. Local project Think– Tank also host their documentary screenings in Spiral’s outdoor arena on the first Monday of every month. (Subject to change). They are on a mission to assist communities to become more sustainable through various means. They have various programs and projects that help various disadvantaged communities receive help in starting financial ventures, small business and so on.
In short, Spiral cares. It cares about what’s happening in our immediate and global community. For the inquisitive and socially concerned individual, it’s a great place to come and support. While you’re there, you’re just likely to meet some other like minded people folk. Maybe you’ll start your own community group or event. They’d support you in doing so.
