$10 tickets with a donation of winter items at the door (see below for more info)

A New York-based fundraiser and donation drive for Standing Rock’s Water Protectors at the Oceti Sakowin Camp.

Winter is coming to Standing Rock and the Water Protectors are struggling to prepare. Due to timing and cost of mass arrests, only one of three camps is adequately winterized—meaning some may not survive the bitter North Dakota winter.

Join us for a night of music, speakers and art in support of those on the frontlines of the Dakota Access Pipeline resistance. All items collected (see list below) and funds raised from silent art auction and ticket sales will be donated to the Oceti Sakowin Camp where one of our close friends and allies has been staying for the past two months.

The DAPL easement was denied, but we must stay vigilant. Join us for a night of music, speakers and art in solidarity with Standing Rock’s Water Protectors. All proceeds will be donated to the Oceti Sakowin at Standing Rock.
