The 3rd annual KW Palestine Festival introduces Solidarity Day: The World Stands with Palestine🇵🇸
Hosted by Sporas Scattered and the Palestinian Youth Movement.
Due to the ongoing genocide in Gaza, we have changed the nature of this event from one of celebration to one of commemoration. Through this event, we hope to raise funds to support those in Gaza facing hardship and raise awareness of the Palestinian cause. As a Solidarity event, we seek to foster connections with our community and allies, uniting people who have been directly or indirectly affected by the current events. This is a safe space to express and connect with Palestine culture and tradition.
