Love Your Rebellion’s goal is to empower marginalized groups through the arts, including women, immigrants, people of color, people from q***r and trans communities, people from low-income communities, and people with disabilities. We want to provide artists, musicians, and writers from the aforementioned marginalized groups with opportunities in live performance, publication, exhibition, and education that include payment, exposure, and support. These broader goals are reached through LYR’s main objectives to employ musicians and artists from marginalized groups in the arts; discover artists, writers, and musicians from marginalized groups by increasing their exposure; and assist people from marginalized groups via low cost or free access to music, art, writing, and therapeutic arts. Love Your Rebellion's Zine Library hosts more than 150 zines at Neenie's House in East Fort Myers. LYR's Zine Library is open for events and features a cafe, plus free wifi. Additional LYR programming includes a biannual therapeutic and literary arts zine, music and art events, and arts education opportunities.
