About the 2024 Show
No Matter What … We Sing Out for Freedom is the 2024 theme of the NYCLU and ACLU’s annual concert and community event. Taking place just one week before Election Day, we’ll rally for the fights ahead, no matter what happens at the ballot box. We’ll also make a final — spectacular — push to vote YES on Prop 1, enshrining abortion rights and other crucial freedoms in New York’s Constitution.
Past Shows
Sing Out for Freedom was founded by Liana Stampur and Erich Bergen in 2002. Since then, this concert has celebrated the achievements of the NYCLU and ACLU with song and speech from big stars and up-and-coming artists from Broadway and beyond.
Our Artist Ambassadors
The Artist Ambassador program was created to help amplify the NYCLU’s fight for civil rights and liberties. The program engages, educates and empowers arts community members who are passionate about the intersection of art and social justice.
