FALL OF FREEDOM
OCTOBER ‘26 MIXTAPE
October 2nd - 4th, 2026
For the second consecutive year, A Gathering of the Tribes stands in solidarity with artists nationwide, answering Fall of Freedom’s call to unite in creative resistance, countering fascist repression and the censorship of free expression. Our democracy is under attack. Dissent is criminalized. Institutions and media are being reshaped into instruments of propaganda. The erosion of our civil liberties feels endless, while human rights are continuously violated. Governance is no longer by and for the people, but increasingly serves to further enrich those in power. That is why, in this moment, art matters more than ever.
We invite you to experience our on-line exhibition, “Fall of Freedom October ’26 MIXTAPE,” which will take over the entire Tribes’ site from 10:00 AM FRI, October 2nd, to 10:00 PM SUN, October 4th. A new volume featuring literary and visual works will be released each day, creating an evolving stream of work throughout the three-day call to action.
You can check out the Fall of Freedom nationwide schedule here.
