Joy is RESISTANCE!

Show OUT at Rubber Gloves Rehearsal Studio on Saturday night with PRIDENTON at our DANCE PARTY!

This year, we are eager to make our future goal of a LGBTQIA+ community center a reality. In the interest of this goal, we are suggesting a $10 donation to enter this event–but we won’t turn anyone away!

**Event is 18+ ONLY**

We will have live performances by No Good Babies, Mutha Falcon, Dezi 5 and we'll end the night with long-time collaborator, DJ Ursa Minor!

Bring your dollar bills for tips to Go-Go dancers from Glitterbomb!
