Freedom Festivals are gatherings of artists, thinkers, activists, citizens and friends who wish to celebrate and strengthen, through performance and art, music, discussions and theater, the spirit and intent of the founding documents of this state and other free and democratic societiesfreedom of expression, pursuit of happiness, freedom from persecution, and other various civil liberties. Freedom Festival is an open attempt to use our remaining rights, understand how to keep them, and reclaim the ones we have lost.

Freedom Festival is a gathering of cultural, social, and artistic communities seeking to expand our networks, challenge the dominant assumptions, strengthen our activities, and work towards defending our rights to work outside, beside, or without the occupied life.

Creative responses, satiric guerrilla theater, infowarfare, music, workshops, video screenings, performances, debates, talks, and fashion coalesce into a weekend laboratory and creative resistance camp to help kick off a Summer of Resistance and make a Response to Un-american Activities.
