Posted project update #2Your support is greatly appreciated, and needed, tell your friends!
Post CommentNow that we have overcome a large set of major roadblocks and hurdles, we are staring down a huge pile of bills from the City of Oakland. While NIMBY is financially sound as an art space - we need the greater community to once again step up and help us through this crunch. NIMBY is setting many precedents for art spaces, not just in Oakland but everywhere. We are dotting every i and crossing every t, creating a solid foundation for future art spaces to build upon. While this is costing many thousands of dollars it will pave a road that others may follow: it truly is a community effort. Your continued support is needed as this battle is not over yet.

Post CommentThis is the first project we have posted to Kickstarter - and it is a BIG ONE. So far we are really excited about the response. Thanks for all of your support. We are twittering, facebooking, and pinging away in the office here at NIMBY letting our friends know what we are up to - please pass the word along.

Michael Snook founded NIMBY with no initial investment in April of 2004. His hard work and dedication have built not only a functional facility, but also a reputation for steady and levelheaded leadership in the Bay Area art community. There is hardly... view more
RIGHT ON. Your tenacity is inspiring.
With the close of Ace Auto Wrecking so few places remain in the Bay Area were a traveler can go and except to find friends. NIMBY in all its incarnations has always welcomed me and so I am happy to know that my small contribution among many others keeps the doors open. Congratulations Snook and crew from friends in Portland and the great northwest
Nice going Michael & crew. Looking forward to a visit on my next trip to the Bay.
