THIS EVENT RULED

can I say that myself?!

poster was a collab between patchthatsweater and alison— !

The next “Fuchsia Is Now” will be May 5th — stay tuned for a theme/location/DJ announcement!

“it’s not a dance party if people aren’t dressed up…”

unrecognizable faces, wild eyes, bodies that language can’t describe. your queerest dreams of high technology, self modification, hybrid magic, science fiction creatures, embodied transformation, post-apocalyptic beasts, fierce babes…
friday, July 15th, Bldg 16, Providence, 10pm? till 3am?

djs meg powers, matthew lawrence, eli manhunt. more details to follow; this is advance notice so you can mark your calendars & start collecting stuff for your costumes…. !!!

dressed up = $1-$2 donation….
not dressed up = $6.

money helps support B16 and future queer dance parties. but we would rather you get fancy than give us more dollars….

so… get fancy.

[n.b. queerness not required, by any means. however, an ability to look squinty-eyed at straight privilege & cis-gendered privilege is highly recommended! :) ]

dance party! 

bring big records and little shakers, wear awesome outfits, just like these weirdos!

We know there are a bunch of queer & genderqueer folks in our lovely, tiny city of Providence, RI — and many who are questioning or exploring their potentially queer sexuality or gender identity.  We are steeped in overlapping communities based around bike riding, farming, music, art, research, beer-brewing, building, teaching, and “projects” in general…  but we also want to find & foster more queer community in our town, adding another overlapping circle to the ones we already feel at home in.

We’re also psyched to become a more visible presence of awesomely queer folks doing awesome stuff around here. 

So… let’s hang out!  Come by and meet up with other genderqueer & queer folks!  Tuesday July 6th, 2010, 7pm - 9pm.  potluck snack party.  email us at: queerprovidence [at] gmail.com for the location.

…

hope to see you there!
