THE CABIN
The Cabin was created in 2019 as a mini cinema/venue seating 7. A venue for film, performances, screenings, workshops, meetings and events...
The cabin can also support an outdoor screen, or projection booth for larger spaces. It is entirely self powered through batteries and a solar panel.
It's a long term project and we're interested in all ideas for it's use.
