Crafting Against Cops - Safety Beyond Policing

Saturday November 8 * 3pm * Free / donations * RSVP

As ICE, federal law enforcement, and the National Guard continue their monthslong presence in DC, it's important for us to remember that it's up to us to keep each other and our neighbors safe. Join us on Saturday, November 8th at 3 PM for an afternoon of crafting, community, and conversation around policing and abolition.

Poster-making materials, general art supplies, and snacks provided. Not interested in making posters, or have your own project you’d like to work on? No problem! Bring your own work or make art with the supplies provided, and take pleasure in the simple act of creating with other people. All levels of crafting skills or know-how welcome, no artistic experience required.

We are a group of friends and organizers working toward a world where abolition is possible. Originating out of SURJ DC, the Policing + Abolition team aims to build widespread support for alternatives to policing and prisons.
