The Creative Revolution presents: A Benefit for Lady Parts Justice
Saturday, June 24 | 8:00PM
Salzy, Park Slope
Tickets: cr4lpj.eventbrite.com
(Tickets can be purchased on a sliding scale of $5-$20)
100% of proceeds will benefit Lady Parts Justice
The Creative Revolution is excited to be hosting our third fundraiser on behalf of local organizations leading the revolution for social, political and economic justice and resistance. Following two successful fundraisers benefiting the ACLU and NYCLU, we are thrilled to support the Brooklyn-based, nationally recognized organization Lady Parts Justice, for our third benefit on Saturday, June 24th at the bar Salzy in Park Slope.
Lady Parts Justice, founded by one of the co-creators of the Daily Show, is the first not safe for work, rapid response reproductive rights messaging hub that uses comedy, culture and digital media to sound an alarm about the terrifying erosion of reproductive access so people will get off their asses and reclaim their rights.
Performances Include:
Live music from: Mollie King, Jordan McIntyre, and Band of Others, each performing original and/or covering protest songs, with political and protest-based photography projected behind each set
Dance performances from: AJ Sharp, Alexis Robbins, and Rebecca Hidalgo
Comedy sets from: Jennifer Salzman, Megan Dunlop, and Lady Parts Justice’s Abby Holland and Julie Rosing
A spoken word performance from: Mimi Martin
We will also have a special live music and projections set from Woody Cuban B Poulard, who will close the show with his set and then continue spinning tunes into an after party.
At midnight, DJ Tikka Masala will continue the dance party until 4:00am!
All performances at this event will include some content that relates to the themes of protest, resistance, equality, and justice, with some focusing heavily on women’s right and reproductive rights, in honor of Lady Parts Justice.
