This weekend: Our Wicked Lady and DELI TV team up for Rights of Spring fest

Ok imagine a modern day Lilith Fair except instead of Lilith it’s more like a Kali meets Persephone meets Yewa meets Chang'e meets Courtney Motherf*cking Love Fair and that’ll give you some idea of what to expect this weekend at the Rights of Spring Fest taking place from 3pm until late late late both Sat/Sun at Our Wicked Lady in Bushwick, Brooklyn...



…BUT WAIT THAT’S NOT ALL cuz it’s also a fundraiser with 100% of the door and partial bar proceeds going to the New York Abortion Access Fund (est. 2001) which pays clinics directly for low-income patients’ abortions including a growing number of out-of-state abortion patients for the obvious, troubling reasons…



…plus they’ll be vendors, DJs downstairs (including the legendary Jonathan Toubin closing out the fest upstairs on Sunday), flash tattoos by Shannon Virginia & Reba a.k.a. Flowers For All Occasions, and booze by Slow & Low and yes free ice cream for everyone in attendance…

…well ok maybe no free ice cream but The Deli will be “livesteaming” (as the kids say) the event all over your face and hands on IG Live and shooting a mini-doc for Deli Mag Films and oh yeah the bitchin’ flyer is by Sean Urie with festival co-producer Alexandra Blair from the Silk War (also performing at the fest!) hangin' around for the duration conducting impromptu interviews (see above for a sneak peek!) so get ready to get crazeeeee yo...



...and yeah your heard us right "DELI frickin' TV" is an actual thing--check us out on YouTube--cuz the Deli is going full-on multimedia with livestreams, video interviews like the ones seen above, and producing our own good ol' fashioned music videos, it's a whole new chapter y'all whoop whoop!--so join us on this journey won't you please and in the meantime enjoy the music and vids below by the featured artists at Rights of Spring...
