If you live in New York City and have been following the 'Free Pussy Riot!' movement as closely as we have, tonight’s the night to get involved!
Amnesty International, FreePussyRiot.org, The Voice Project, and Lombard Freid Projects have joined together for a one-night-only benefit exhibition featuring five original videos of the feminist punk collective as well as various speakers from the New York cultural community.
The exhibition will take place from 6 to 10 PM at Lombard Freid Projects at 518 West 9th Street in Chelsea. Tickets are $50 and the proceeds will benefit the families and the defense fund of the three band members (Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Maria Alyokhina and Yekaterina Samutsevich) who were unjustly sentenced to two years in prison after their anti-Putin performance in a Russian cathedral earlier this year.
You can check out info about tonight’s event and purchase tickets here.
