Artists vs. Pipelines! 🎨🖤
Oct. 2nd
1-5 pm
Bergen Community Garden in Crown Heights, BK

We are hosting an ART SALE to support National Grid Gas Bill Strikers, front line Water Protectors, and to help STOP THE ILLEGAL RACIST FRACKED GAS PIPELINE being built through working-class BIPOC communities in Brooklyn by the U.K. based multi-million corporation National Grid.

Artists will be giving 15-20% off on pieces for anyone who is part of the Gas Bill Strike, for those who cannot strike 15-20% of proceeds will be donated to the Giniw Collective raising money for water protectors fighting Line 3 in Minnesota.

Phases 1-4 of the North Brooklyn Pipeline have been built already by National Grid and runs under the homes, schools, and hospitals of working class BIPOC communities of Brooklyn. It is a pipeline that is not needed and was not agreed to by the community yet NG is making us pay for it by raising our monthly gas bills. This rate hike has already been approved by the Public Service Commision. In solidarity with pipeline fighters across the country, this sale will be to raise funds for the , an Indigenous women and two-spirit led resistance fighting Line 3, a tar sands pipeline, which is being built by Canadian company, Enbridge.

Check www.nonbkpipeline.org for more information about the pipeline, joining the gas bill strike, and for upcoming info about the show. Entry: Sliding scale $5-25.
