Urgent Repairs for C'mon Everybody Venue

Hi everyone, I'm Rachael, a Brooklyn-based event producer and music programmer. I've started this GoFundMe to raise emergency funds urgently needed for my good friends Eric and Mike, owners of the venue C'mon Everybody

Over the past 10 years, Eric and Mike have developed their venue C'mon Everybody to be a refuge and home base for queer and POC artists and community members to thrive. It's a platform for artists on the periphery of traditional venue spaces to express themselves, grow their audiences, meet friends and community, and feel seen, taken care of, and safe. C'mon Everybody has also become a beloved space for audiences and patrons to gather, dance, express joy, find new friends, and have fun. They are three-time Glam Awards winners for "Best Bar" and also have won the "Safe Spaces" award from the Courage Awards.

It's no secret that C'mon Everybody is a staple of the queer nightlife and music scene. However, independently running a venue is not easy, and C'mon Everybody needs our urgent help today!

A minimum of $5,000 is needed today to fix their stage, which has seen major wear and tear over 10 years. Due to damage (uneven, warped floor and now a hole), there is an urgent need to fix the stage ASAP before it is soon completely unusable. Anything left over from stage repair expenses will also go towards repairing some much-needed fixes on their basement stairs, which leads to the artist's greenroom.

Please, donate whatever you can, no amount is too small. Let's show Eric, Mike, and C'mon Everybody the love and support they deserve.

Thank you for your generosity and solidarity.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Rachael
