At both festivals there will be art auction created by musicians and artists supporting the Rock Against Racism cause and promoting this vital and important conversation with all. Artists have painted on TUK footwear in Florida ranging from members of Ministry, Slipknot (pictured), Alexisonfire, Bones UK and more. At Download Festival, artists and musicians have painted on drum heads for the Rock Against Racism art auction.
The message is clear… the rock community stands for unity and equality. We will not settle for anything less. Together Rock Against Racism and Punk Rock & Paintbrushes will unite to bring hope and a brighter future for our world. Come join us in our journey….
“We are honoured to be collaborating with Rock Against Racism to share hope and such an important message for all to hear and be reminded of. We are here to leave a mark in this world and to make a positive difference and partnering with Rock Against Racism allows us to do this.” Emily Nielsen of Punk Rock and Paintbrushes.
“Rock Against Racism is sharing an important social justice message of anti-racism and unity through music. Our values, morals, passion for the arts and education align perfectly with those of Punk Rock & Paintbrushes and the incredible artists they work with. We appreciate Welcome to Rockville, Download Festival and the great people behind those festivals allowing us to share our important message at their events. Music and art have the power to bring people together, embrace change and question status quo.” Cory Brennan of Rock Against Racism
