Event Details

Join us for an energizing evening with one of San Diego's newest Social Change Organizations! 

The Jeans 4 Justice Launch Experience will feature a line up of powerful speakers, inspiring community leaders, professional athletes, talented artists and of course...a never before seen batch of signature pieces of Jeans 4 Justice denim, giving meaning to America's favorite clothing staple.

The goal of this event is to introduce YOU, to the campaigns and programs we are offering, while giving voice to an issue that affects us all in an entertaining, effective, moving and inspirational format.  As our special guest, you will be treated to

  • Live art painting by inspirational "Survivor" Tommy Hollenstein
  • Opportunity drawing to have YOUR denim turned into a one-of-kind-piece of wearable art
  • Premier of the Jeans 4 Justice & Tribal Truth 48 Hours to Empower documentary by LA film director, Morgan Jenkins
  • Keynote speech by Leading Woman Entrepreneur of the World and rape survivor, LuAn Mitchell
  • An innovative show fusing fashion, bold perspectives and challenging questions (you have to COME to understand!) 
  • Yummy cocktails from our THREE OLIVES beverage sponsor
  • Meet the TEAM behind the movement (our board, advisory board and amazing community volunteers)
  • Music from DJ Schoeny, Poetry by Vogue, Performance art by Flying Laura
  • Interactive Mural Creation by Mark Jesinoski

Our vision is to shift the social stigmas surrounding sexual assault by aligning with designers, artists, innovators, survivors, students, advocates and other like-minded organizations. Using fashion, art and fitness as vehicles for education and empowerment, we create opportunities for students, parents and the community at large to access proactive healing and prevention efforts.
