About this Event
In PRESS PLAY - Octavia K. & Toni Bush are facilitating an evening of conversation around music artists, queerness, gay inspiration and realization!
The nostalgic jams by people who molded our perspectives between teen angst and first crushes, revolutionaries who influenced our taste, and symbols of freedom who taught us to find our own paths.
Join us as we listen to some of the first pieces to express longing that aligned with queerness, accompanied by prompted questions as we pass the mic around to the audience encouraging you to join in the conversation!
Tickets are $12 in advance and $15 at the door.
