The Rue Music and Art Festival is a grassroots, traveling music and art showcase designed to lift our voices in collective protest for a better future, showcase female and trans/nonbinary artists, and raise funds for causes invested in mutual liberation. In times of political disarray we need the arts more than ever. Join us to celebrate talented creatives, the rich tradition of protest music and artivism, and support female/queer artists and small businesses.
10% of proceeds from all artists and vendors at the festival will be donated to the Blue Ridge Abortion Fund.
