FUNDRAISER INFORMATION:
The purpose of the cabaret is to raise funds for initiatives that support people of color and new immigrants running for office. The majority of proceeds will be going to The New American Leaders Project and The Women’s Pipeline for Change, two 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofits that support women of color and immigrants running for office. A portion will also be given to EMW Bookstore, our event space and and also a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that supports arts and activism.
Tickets are FREE, but our foremost intent is to fundraise. Suggested donation is $25. If you cannot donate yourself – get your network to participate! Some ideas:
Get 5 friends to donate $5
Get 2 friends to donate $12.50
Etc. Etc. (Reach out to us if you need more ideas, and tips for language!)

EVENT INFORMATION:
The event is a part of Artweek Boston, an award-winning bi-annual creative festival featuring more than 150 unique, unexpected, and creative experiences that are participatory, interactive, or offer behind-the-scenes access to artists or the creative process.
The event itself is a celebration of diversity on stage and in the political arena. We’ll begin the evening with a panel of emerging political leaders and advocates for diversity in theatre. The rest of the evening will consist of musical, monologue, and spoken word performances by a predominantly women of color cast.
This event is also proudly hosted by activists in the Greater Boston area.
A special thanks to our host committee: Tariana V. Little, Mu-Chieh Yun, Iliana Panameno, Jennifer Angarita, Molly Maloney, and Phuong Luong.
