“ARTS IN SOLIDARITY" Benefit Concert for an Immigrant Legal Defense Fund

An ad-hoc host committee of arts presenters and activists have convened for the purpose of raising money for legal defense of immigrants

This group has curated and organized a special four- hour event of cultural voices for the purpose of raising money to fund legal expenses incurred from detention and prosecution.

The event will take place in the beautiful Alambra Palace Restaurant in downtown Chicago.

During the event, literature tables will feature information about support services and other useful resources

The organizers of the concert and the assembled presenters have donated their labor to create this event. 100% of money raised will directly support the beneficiary. The event is ticketed with a minimum suggested donation of $25 but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.
