Tuesday’s Red Alert Day of Action aims to show support for live events
August 31, 2020 - Venues across the country will be lit red Tuesday to support the Save our Stages Act, RESTART Act and the fight to extend pandemic unemployment assistance for the 5.1 million event workers who lost their jobs when the shutdown began in March. Organizers of the Red Alert Day of Action ask that people share their stories of what live events mean to them by posting on social media with the hashtags #wemakeevents, #redalertRESTART and #saveourstages and including photos of their homes lit in red. They're also requesting people write to their elected officials to show support for the arts, entertainment and media industries.
