We will be there from 10am until 6pm both days with potluck lunches. Feel free to come for both full days, half days or just stop by when you can.

Free admission. Fun times. The magic continues.

As part of the educational and community programs SDS has hosted since launching its sit-in in front of Vice President Art Costantino's office, we are proud to sponsor another event. This show features the performers who played the night of the infamous "canceled concert" which lead to the disciplinary action taken by the administration at Evergreen. Hope to see you there.

In Solidarity,

Jeff Berryhill
