Did you know that Adelaide is a designated UNESCO City of Music? And that the Crown and Anchor Hotel is one of Adelaide’s oldest, most vibrant and loved living cultural icons.

The Cranker, as it is affectionately known, is the latest in a long line of live music venues at risk of shutting down - with developers trying to turn this much-loved pub into short-term student accommodation, putting profits ahead of community.

To put it clearly, shutting down the Cranker will be devastating for the future of South Australia’s live music scene and our homegrown artists. That is why South Australians have been coming together to fight to save the Cranker.

This Sunday, 1 pm Tarntanyangga / Victoria Square, the South Australian community is rallying to save the Cranker.

Everyone is welcome. It doesn’t matter if you live outside of Sturt or have never been involved, this is still the event for you!

The Greens can win the seat of Sturt.

The seat of Sturt, in Adelaide’s east, is held by the Liberals. But if just 1 in 10 people change their vote in Sturt, the Greens will win.

The federal election could be 10 weeks away. It’s time to get active!

Join together with hundreds of Greens supporters and we will:

Hear from Greens candidate Katie McCusker and be able to meet her
Find out about the Greens pathway to make history and win Sturt
Distribute ‘Katie for Sturt’ t-shirts for cost price, concession, or free
Hear from volunteer leaders about the ways to get involved now
Be part of a campaign defining group photo (participation is optional)!

Sturt is held by a Liberal. By winning in Sturt, we can help stop Dutton, and ensure the Greens can push for the action we so desperately need.

Already hundreds of Greens volunteers in Sturt have knocked 25,000 doors, delivered 200,000 flyers, and put up 100 candidate signs!

But to win, we need to build the biggest political movement Sturt has ever seen. The first step is coming to the Power Up. Don’t delay, RSVP now!

How do we build a majority for transformative progressive politics?

With support for the old establishment parties crumbling and One Nation on the rise, it’s clear people are fed up with the status quo and want change. But right now it feels like we’re stuck.

Join Max Chandler-Mather, Executive Director of the Green Institute, and Melanie Selwood, Greens MLC for South Australia, to hear the plan on how we can build a movement capable of taking on the corporate and political establishment, and win real change.

We need an economy that works for people, not corporate profit. A government that represents everyone, not just a few corporate and billionaire donors. And, a movement capable of delivering it.

To win that we need to build real, meaningful connections with everyday people.

Come along and hear how you can get involved, and start taking the first big steps towards building the movement.
