Making Noise: A Free Sounds Fundraiser for Families in Gaza


We invite adults, families, and children to gather at Co-Prosperity for an afternoon of sound, play, rest, reflection, mourning, and connection. A fluid cohort of musicians will play in a freely improvised circle that allows them to concentrate their sound intentionally toward a shared center, letting the sound radiate outward in all directions rather than from a stage. Attendees can listen, move about, socialize, rest, reflect, and share space together. The purpose is comfort, connection, honor, rage, mourning, and regenerating hope together. We honor our collective humanity with all forms of response, and we include people of all ages, to emphasize and sustain our interconnectedness and our need for each other. Younger children will play in a space set aside for shared and homemade games or circulate as they wish. Food and drink will be provided by Yaba’s Restaurant in Logan Square and donations from the event will be sent in full to help families currently surviving under occupation in Gaza.
