Apoya la lucha: Art Show Fundraiser for Immigrant Rights

Support Juntos as they celebrate a year of victories fighting for immigrant rights in our city. In the last year, they fought to expand Philadelphia’s status as a sanctuary city, partnered with local campaigns to fight against the prison industrial complex, and highlighted local human rights abuses as part of a local effort to close local detention centers Berks Family Detention Center and York County Prison.

In order to prepare for the upcoming lucha en 2019, they will be hosting an art show and fundraiser at Tattooed Mom! Local artists have donated work to raise funds for Juntos’ cause, and they will also be vending limited Juntos merchandise along with raffle tickets to a limited edition papel picado by resident Juntos artist, Erika Guadalupe Nunez. Ademas, Tattooed Moms is donating a percentage of all sales during the event as well!

Join us for a meal or drink, purchase of an art piece or t-shirt and help ensure our fight for the rights and dignity of the immigrant rights community in Philadelphia continues. ¡Si se puede!

We’ll have some very special raffle items and rad day of show surprises. 100% of ALL sales will go to benefit inspiring youth local arts programs.

We hope you will share your sticker art with us and the world through Characters Welcome and spread the word about the show to your fellow artists, friends and family. The creative exchange and collaboration of this show is at the very heart of what we love to do here at Mom’s.
