Choice Action Now is organized by Lisa Cole, Michele Pred, and Hadley Dynak –artists, fundraisers, and cultural producers enraged about the state of reproductive rights and abortion access.
If you’re fuming too, OR if you’re feeling alone, overwhelmed, and not sure what to do about this assault on choice, join us. We’ve organized an event to help you learn, connect, and make a difference — right now.
Come alone or bring your posse. But show up.
