On June 14, join us for a family-friendly potluck watch party of the “Rise Up, Sing Out” livestream. In addition to the concert, we will be creating art to display as outreach to the community, playing fun democracy-themed games, and building community. Folks who are new to organizing and activism, or interested in becoming more involved, are welcome!
If you are able, please bring food or non-alcoholic drinks to share. Additionally, Good Trouble Corvallis will be collecting non-perishable food for local food banks.
Rise Up, Sing Out: A Concert for the First Amendment — an uplifting evening of music, community, and action. Hosted by the Committee for the First Amendment (CFA), this special livestream event will feature an all-star lineup including Jane Fonda, Patti Smith, Bette Midler, Rufus Wainwright, Joy Reid, Wilson Cruz, Broadway Inspirational Voices, and more.
Together, we’ll celebrate the freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment — including the freedoms of speech, religion, press, assembly, and protest — and the people power that protects them. Communities across the country will gather for local watch parties to livestream the 90-minute concert beginning at 4:30 p.m. Pacific Time.
Join us to sing along, connect with neighbors, share food and creativity, and celebrate the power we build when we come together. Whether you’re a longtime organizer or brand new to the movement, you’re invited to an afternoon and evening of joy, inspiration, and collective action in support of democracy and freedom.
