Weena Legal Squat
How to squat without squating?
For over a year, we occupied the 8th floor of a large office building in Rotterdam. What started with a phone call about an empty building, became a generous hub providing space for a group of 16 people to build their own open office space in the 400m2 floor area. Run and organised by Jelle Grevink and myself, we co-managed the facilities with the whole group and organised events and workshops. One of the empty floors above was once used for an exhibition. After we left later in 2021, the space was taken over by the people who were still using it. It is still operational today.
