IN SUPPORT OF A CULTURE OF OPPOSITION

For 25 years ABC No Rio has been host to exhibitions, performance art, poetry readings, film and video screenings, punk shows, open mics, experimental music performances and free drawing, photography and filmmaking classes for neighborhood kids. We've developed new facilities - a darkroom, printshop and computer center - increasing our ability to serve artists, activists and the community at large. Our Zine Library is one of the largest collections of its type. We provide a home to Food Not Bombs and to Books Through Bars. Thousands of artists, performers, poets and musicians have found a supportive home for their expression and experimentation at ABC No Rio.

ABC No Rio has meant many things to many people. But our commitment to political and social engagement has remained consistent. We need your help to continue this tradition. Proceeds from this benefit will go towards ABC No Rio's Building Renovation Fund.
