The No Kings Map is Live!
Hundreds of nonviolent protests are already planned for No Kings Day on March 28, and more are being added by the hour.
Art has always been one of the most powerful forms of resistance.
Homegrown Criminals: Redacted is a renegade art show bringing together artists, musicians, poets, comedians, and community members for a night of creativity, fellowship, and defiance.
This event highlights the role of art as a tool for expression, resistance, and storytelling in times when voices are often silenced. We are creating a space where artists and community members can gather, share work, and build connections.
The evening will feature visual art displays, live performances, and community dialogue.
This event also serves as a benefit art show, and artists are encouraged (but not required) to donate a small percentage of any sales to the beneficiary of the show.
Join us for a powerful night of art, creativity, and community.
Art as an act of resistance.
