--------------------------------
The Aotearoa 2 Gaza mutual aid fund was set up last year to directly support families in Gaza. We are a grassroots collective based in Aotearoa standing in unwavering solidarity with Palestinian families in Gaza. Through consistent, direct mutual aid, we send $100 at a time (usually once a week) to families who are living through unimaginable hardship under Israel’s occupation and genocide. These contributions go straight to verified recipients, without intermediaries, ensuring urgent support reaches those who need it most.
Irish Musicians for Palestine is brought to you by Aotearoa Irish for Justice and Peace, a space for those who identify with Muintir na hÉireann, the people of Ireland, and our heritage, grounded in promotion of human rights, justice and peace building. We stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine.
Vogelmorn Upstairs is not a wheelchair accessible building. There is an accessible bathroom in this space. This is an all ages venue but those under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a designated adult after 8pm. The Vogelmorn Precinct is a community space located in a residential area. With that in mind, the team ask that you be kind to others and that when you leave the gig, you do so quietly, to avoid disturbing our neighbours. This gig is seated.
