DALLAS (KDAF) — On Nov. 22, a benefit concert will take place in support of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), headlined by nine-time Grammy Award winner Sheryl Crow. Joining her on stage at Pioneer Works, in Red Hook, Brooklyn, is a stellar line-up featuring Maggie Rogers, Mon Rovia, Taylor Meier, Mark Ronson, and more.

The newly announced benefit concert aims to highlight the role of creative expression in advocacy efforts, bringing together artists in support of civil liberties. The event, titled Creatives for Freedom, was organized in response to ongoing concerns about First Amendment protections, including the rights to free speech and peaceful protest. Ben & Jerry’s, Gabriela Hearst, and Yola Mezcal will stand up, speak out, and support the protection of the First Amendment.

ACLU supporter The Butcher’s Daughter will offer complimentary bites and City Winery wines will feature at the bar. Plus, the Ben & Jerry’s MegaCone will be there encouraging guests to raise their voice for free speech. Artist Raul de Nieve’s first institutional show at Pioneer Works, “In Light of Innocence” will support the luminary ambience of the evening.

Tickets are now available here. Student tickets available with code. Proceeds support the ACLU’s ongoing work to defend rights nationwide.
