‘Party to Protect’ against gun violence coming to Gowanus
A group of Brooklyn friends and a venue in Gowanus are taking aim at gun violence with a stage and some tattoo guns.
Littlefield, 635 Sackett St., will play host on Saturday, June 16 to a very special “Party to Protect Our Lives,” a multifaceted benefit concert meets tattoo pop-up salon from which 100 percent of proceeds will go to Moms Demand Action, a division of Everytown for Gun Safety.
“Party to Protect” — a grassroots organization founded by now-California-based Sarah Hanson whose mission is to party to raise money for positive causes that need promotion and protection — has raised thousands of dollars for organizations like Planned Parenthood and Earthjustice, an environmental conservation organization based in San Francisco.
