Join us for a report back, art auction & fundraiser for the Standing Rock Two Spirit Nation camp!
Trump’s administration brings new, imminent, and scary threats to water protectors at the Standing Rock encampment in North Dakota. Please help the Two Spirit Nation stand up for our water and the sovereignty of our First Peoples!

Accessibility Information:
The event is in the upstairs ballroom space of the Starline Social Club, which regrettably is not yet wheelchair accessible. There are 2 flights of stairs – approximately 20 steps total – leading up to the ballroom. Restrooms have relatively wide stalls. There will be one gender neutral and one women’s* restroom upstairs, and a single-stall gender-neutral restroom attendees can use downstairs. Guests should use whichever restroom they feel most comfortable with. The venue may use some scented cleaning supplies, but we ask that people do their best to arrive ***free of scents and fragrances,*** to support access for community members with chemical sensitivities.
