Karmel Sabri presents:The second annual DEAR GAZA block party.
Sunday October 2nd!
On the street between W 24th & Lyndale Ave S – W 24th & Garfield Ave S

Every year, Minnesotans from all walks of life gather to stand in solidarity, witness art, and fund-raise for the plight of Gaza.

DEAR GAZA is an inspiring artist showcase and fundraiser that pursues aid-funding for the ongoing plight of the Gaza strip. The evening will host spoken word poetry, dance, art, inter-activities, live music, and more from conscious artists in solidarity with the Gaza strip.

Last year, thanks to local humanitarians like you, we were able to raise $20,000 for Gaza. This initial investment was then turned into 1.3 million Dollars worth of medical supplies by America Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA) through their In-Kind Medical & Relief Program, which delivers critical, donated medical supplies and health care equipment to the people of Gaza.
