Portland For Palestine is a comedy show and market fundraiser, a boycott effort, and a call to action!


We believe artists have the responsibility to build artistic spaces that aren't merely distractions from our world, rather, are responsive to our global community in alignment with our collective liberation. We divest from the zioni$t networks that are prevalent in the comedy scene here, and resist by creating our own spaces.


Who we are supporting:

All funds raised from ticket sales will support our dear friend Mohammed and his family. Mohammed and his siblings were all in the process of achieving higher education when the terrors of colonization and imperialism turned their world upside down. As we know, there are no universities left in Gaza. So this fundraiser will support Mohammed and his family to survive the life in Gaza, rebuild and hopefully resume their education. Our people need us, and this is our small effort in showing up for them.


All funds raised from the raffle will support local SWANA community members facing political imprisonment, legal action and suppression.


We are also collecting physical donations on behalf of the PDX Community Free Store to support our unhoused neighbors. In order to win a special raffle prize we request that attendees bring one of the many items on a needs list. PDX Community Free Store is a group that organizes distribution of harm reduction supplies, hygiene supplies, outside gear, clothing, beauty products, art and education materials and books twice a week for unhoused Portlanders. They also provide on-site hair cuts, massages, medical support and bike repair.

What to expect:

We will have five comedians who we believe aren't just Portland's funniest, but also radical individuals who care about community care and collective Liberation. Prior to the comedy show we will have local vendors selling art + food, and a cute raffle to maximize fundraising potential. The market portion of the event will run from 6:30pm to 7:30pm and the comedy show will take place directly after. The event will likely come to a close around 10pm. There will be food vendors that you may purchase food from. We will have water available for free.


Note: Please reach out to the organizer if you have any accessibility needs for the event! We will do our absolute best to accommodate you, and if we are unable to accommodate you may request a refund.


Grab your friends and family, and head over to Bridgespace for an evening filled with laughter, community, and a chance to support families in Gaza and our local community.


Free Palestine!
