JERSEY CITY -- Local artists are hosting a fundraiser for the American Civil Liberties Union on Saturday that organizers are calling a "solidarity party."

"As we move into this uncertain period of history, it is essential to support organizations such as the ACLU that have the structural fortitude and manpower to fight the forces of oppression," the organizers say in a press release.

The party will feature DJ Bizznice and DJ Vidal, as well as artwork from numerous local artists, including Courtney Bernard, Allison Remy Hall, Alicia Ruth and more.

All proceeds from the fundraiser, which will take place on Dec. 3 from 5 to 10 p.m. at ShuaSpace, 340 Summit Ave., will go to the ACLU.

If you'd like to donate your artwork, contact
