Event description
SOLIDARITY FEST is a one-day festival on January 3rd at JACK in Brooklyn, New York which aims to connect Palestine to an array of social justice issues today, galvanizing artists and cultural workers to play a central role in bringing about change in their respective creative domains, localities, and workplaces.
It is also a fundraiser, as all proceeds will be donated to Palestine relief efforts, and sliding scale tickets are available to ensure maximum accessibility. In the form of panels, workshops, performances and more, it will draw together cultural organizers from a range of active movement organizations and formations to ensure that all participants leave with ideas and actions to deepen their commitment to collective liberation.
Tickets are available for two programs, at 12:30pm and 6pm. Each program contains unique events and participants!
Currently confirmed programming includes: a panel discussion with Robin D.G. Kelley and Rashid Khalidi, a new play reading from Ismail Khalidi & Naomi Wallace directed by Lee Sunday Evans, a new short play reading from Jesse Jae Hoon, a performance from Radical Evolution’s Street Team, music from The Brooklyn Nomads, and a performance from Dancers for Palestine. Artists, speakers, panelists, full event schedule and more will be announced on a rolling basis.
This event is a fundraiser. 100% of ticket proceeds (minus processing and fiscal sponsorship fees) go to Middle East Children's Alliance and The Sameer Project.
Solidarity Fest is organized by Theater Workers for a Ceasefire.
