With the rise of book bans and censorship across the country, “Bands for the Banned” is an opportunity to stand united for the freedom to read diverse voices in schools and public libraries and ensure free expression for all those silenced. Join Lerner Publishing Group and four local bands for a night to rally support for librarians, authors, and artists on the front lines of book challenges.
Proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to organizations that help communities fight book bans and challenges, including EveryLibrary’s Fight for the First campaign, We Are Stronger than Censorship, and Unite Against Book Bans. Additional donations to these organizations will be accepted during the event.
