Details on the Suffolk Street Solidarity fundraiser

Bluestockings Cooperative Bookstore and The Clemente Center are hosting a fundraiser on Dec. 8 — in person as well as via live stream. 

Here are some details about the event, held at The Clemente, via the EVG inbox...

Bluestockings has been part of the Lower East Side for 22 years and The Clemente for nearly 30. Bluestockings found a new home during the pandemic, and it's right across from The Clemente on Suffolk Street. We are thrilled to be neighbors and for all the possibilities this opens for us to work together. 

We're marking this new chapter with a joint fundraiser to mutually support each other's work and connect our already overlapping communities.

Speakers: Alok, Rita Indiana, Molly Crabapple, Yin Q, Victoria Law

Performers: Claudi of PincLouds and Choked Up (with Cristy Road)

Raffle Items: We have coveted items and great gifts which include thematically curated bundles from Bluestockings merch, Hardcover coffee table books donated by the Museum of the City of New York, tickets and passes to plays and concerts donated by Teatro SEA, and Arts for Art, and more.

Suffolk Street Solidarity is a celebration of our communities that will support our spaces' continued survival and shared commitment to solidarity work. Our fundraising goal of $70k will be split equally between Bluestockings & The Clemente.
