“Water Is Life: Stop Line 3” is a new festival that’s set to be held August 18 at Bayfront Park in Duluth, Minnesota. Organized by the indigenous women-led nonprofit Honor the Earth in partnership with First Avenue and the Current, the event is billed as “a celebration of water as the fundamental life-giving resource of Mother Earth, and a full-throttle resistance of music and song against the Line 3 tar sands oil pipeline currently snaking its way through the waterways and Anishinaabe lands of northern Minnesota.”

Artists set to perform the event include Bon Iver, Lissie, Alan Sparkhawk of Low, Grammy-nominated artist Mumu Fresh, Minnesotan songwriter Charlie Parr, Ojibwe Nation singer and activist Dorene Day Waubanewquay, and others. Proceeds from Water Is Life will go towards Honor the Earth’s fight against the Line 3 pipeline construction. Find the full lineup below.

For the past five years, the Stop Line 3 movement has actively resisted the pipeline development by Canadian multinational fossil fuel corporation Enbridge. Winona LaDuke, founder of Honor the Earth and an Indigenous rights activist, was arrested earlier this month alongside six other women while protesting the pipeline. 

LaDuke wrote in a press release: “Water is life. We are the people who live by the water. Pray by these waters. Travel by the waters. Eat and drink from these waters. We are related to those who live in the water. To poison the waters with Line 3 is to show disrespect for creation. To honor and protect the waters is our responsibility as people of the land.”
