SUPPORT OUR MOVEMENT

YOU can help an artist be safe and empowered to create and imagine freely.

In a time of rapid political, moral and legal change that puts freedom of expression under unprecedented pressure, artists are increasingly targeted for their socially and politically engaged artwork.

Avant-Garde Lawyers uses the full power of the law to protect freedom of artistic expression and defend artists. It takes us hundreds of hours each month to research, design and coordinate legal strategies. Any donation helps us grow our capacity for this work.

We are deeply grateful for your contribution and commitment to freedom of artistic expression. We would love to know more about you. Please leave us a message and tell us who you are and why art is important to you. Or not, if you wish to remain anonymous. Either way, THANK YOU!

Legal Defence Fund

Your financial support is crucial in providing specialized legal assistance to artists facing censorship and persecution, particularly in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The Legal Defence Fund, established in memory of Egyptian filmmaker Shady Habash, enables Avant-Garde Lawyers to engage legal fellows, local attorneys, translators, and experts to defend artists’ rights. By contributing, you help prevent tragedies like Shady’s and ensure that artists can continue to create freely and safely.
