Our vision for Sumud for Palestine is to offer the Houston community an opportunity to come together, enjoy art, eat delicious food, and embrace the works of various artisans while also taking part in education and action related to Palestinian liberation. Sumud in Arabic translates to steadfast, and we hope that through this event, we are all strengthened to remain steadfast against this genocide.

In times of adversity, community provides comfort, resilience, and support– often stepping in where our government can’t and won't. Our community constantly reminds us of the profound impact we can have when we come together. With that being said, our event will serve as a fundraiser for Gaza Mutual Aid Solidarity, an ad-hoc group of Houston women created in November 2023 that has been sending direct aid through family members in Gaza to help displaced and distressed families meet their basic needs during this catastrophic time.

Our mission will always be community helping community. Join us as we continue uplifting Palestinian voices, and ultimately, inspire action that will lead to an end of the genocide and a Free Palestine in our lifetime.
