Create & Protest: Community Poster-Making Event!

CREATE & PROTEST: Community Poster-Making Event!

Join us for Create & Protest, a FREE hands-on workshop where art meets activism. This all-ages gathering is a chance to raise your voice, stand up for immigrant rights and free speech, and connect with others through the power of art.

We’re protesting mass deportations and standing in solidarity with immigrant communities—and we’re doing it with bold visuals, loud messages, and collective energy.

What’s Happening:

• Live screen printing with a professional artist!Bring your own T-shirts or tote bags, or make a poster—we’ll have paper and ink ready to go.
• DIY protest station with all the materials you need: poster board, cardboard, paint, markers, and more.
• Community connection: Meet others, share your story, amplify your message.
  
  

Whether you come with a message in mind or just want to create in solidarity, everyone is welcome. Youth are especially welcome to join to create posters for May Day!
