FREE event. Open-to-all!
What is it? A happening uniting the community in a meaningful expression of resilience, solidarity, and transformation. 25+ artists, advocates and social justice organizations will connect, create + showcase artworks, social services, and interactive experiences. The event will combine practical support such as an expungement clinic, discussions + workshops with creative expressions like storytelling, performance art, music, theatre + visual art installations.
Who is it for? EVERYONE is WELCOME including justice system-impacted individuals + their families, justice-focused artists, advocates, groups, organizations, + elected officials as both audience + participants in this community-driven event
Why: As our communities across Los Angeles navigate significant policy shifts impacting the justice system, many understandably feel heightened uncertainties. These changes + an uncertain political future emphasize the importance of creating gathering spaces, where those most affected by the justice system can come together, share stories, tend to each other (mutual aid), + realize a compassionate city that amplifies critical voices + supports liberatory practices.
