A portion of ticket proceeds will benefit Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP), a nonprofit that promotes justice by defending and advancing the rights of immigrants through direct legal services, systemic advocacy, and community education.
Come hungry for global foods, stories, and connection. This is more than an event—it’s a celebration of resilience, culture, and community.
