Presented by Homopolitan & The Rechabite
We are culturally influenced and inspired by the musical styles and ethos of underground and classic club culture, which was pioneered by Black and Latinx queer folk and continues to be so.
We are committed to working towards a near future where even the most marginalised folk are free to thrive and feel themselves without the barriers of discrimination.
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land on which we operate, the Whudjuk Noongar people.
We acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
We stand in solidarity with their ongoing resilience, past and present, and we ask the same of attendees to this event.
