We’re bringing you a new kind of No Immigrants No Spice Fundraiser!

Mark your calendars for 🌶️Saturday, October 10 🌶️ as we gather at SF for an unforgettable fundraiser evening celebrating people, stories, and flavors that immigration brings to our communities. This event will help us make a reality!

Expect:
🍽️ Dinner by Chef Reem Assil of Reem's California
🍹 Small bites desserts & cocktails from Merkado
🎭 Live performances and thoughtful programming
🛍️ Our first-ever Spicy Soiree with a market featuring vendors, makers, and artists

PLUS!

A surprise performance and thoughtful storytelling you won’t want to miss — unheard voices, front and center.

Interested in vending? If you are a small, immigrant-owned business, apply to sell your art, products, goods (packaged food only) at the Merkado (link in bio).

If you’ve joined us for BBQ Without Borders, you know we love bringing hundreds of people together around food. This evening will be a bit different - a more intimate experience designed to spark connection and conversation around the table, and raise funds to help advance the No Immigrants No Spice Mission.

As always, every dish, every performance, every story will celebrate the immeasurable ways immigrants shape our collective culture.

Proceeds from this event go straight toward our mission of shifting the narrative on immigration — and right now, that means paying the artists and performers for our upcoming BBQ Without Borders. So many of them give their time for free. Let’s change that!

More details (including ticket options) are coming soon. This will be a limited-capacity event, so follow us to stay updated!.
