Calling all community! Come gather for Water, Seeds, & Solidarity- a fundraiser for G a z a in East Boston on June 22 from1-9pm.

Help raise the collective frequency and come together with Boston-based artists as we create a DREAMSPACE to heal our collective spirit, to learn more about the movement for Pal est ini an liberation, and to show up in support & solidarity.

100% of event proceeds will go towards helping fund 3 locally-based grassroots collectives (Ele Elna Elak, Watermelon Relief, & Fed Up For Palestine) that distribute water, food and other critical relief to displacement camps across the G a z a strip.

Can’t make it in person, but still want to support?

***We have options to engage remotely! ***

We’ll have a team of incredibly talented volunteer artists offering photoshoots, live music/spoken word performances, and a chance to try your hand at some custom printmaking with 🍉 linocut stamps.

There will also be pre-made prints & solidarity apparel available.

Check out the zines & get informed on activism actions in our community resource library!

Whether you have $2 to give, or $100+, bring what you can and spend your hard earned cash on some cool art for a good cause! Bring your friends!
