Description

A showcase of local artists in Minneapolis who identify as femme, nonbinary, and/or queer. (18+ event). There will be an open mic from 8-8:30 PM, performers 8:30-11:30 PM, and a DJ from 11:30 PM-12 AM to close the night. There will also be visual artists. Majority of the proceeds will go to a local women's shelter who helps victims of domestic violence, Tubman. The rest will be used to pay the artists. Tips/donations are encouraged, but not required. Our hope is that people will reflect on how these topics apply both to the local art scene and the larger Minneapolis community. Above all, this event is meant to showcase newer artists that are overlooked in a male/cis/heteronormative industry. Everyone is welcome to attend regardless of their identity, because above all this event is focused on inclusivity within our community. Art is for everyone and we encourage everyone who attends to engage with the show whether that be purchasing visual art, performing for the open mic, or simply enjoying the music. **Masks/vaccination are strongly reccomended**
