GEt ready for our first Queer Climate Cabaret!

For Vital Matters, Pride is 365, and helps us find the fabulousness in the natural world, including humans. 


This summer, we are hard at work putting together a Queer Climate Cabaret for October 17. Our cabaret will feature performances and art works inspired by queer ecology, reimagine drag as an interspecies affair, and invite you to a KiKi with Kin you didn't know you had! 


You can help us bring the Queer Climate Cabaret to life by donating here.  Your donation will support the hard work of our amazing Queer Climate Cabaret team, which includes Chris Jay and Pretty Rik E. of Pretty Boi Drag, Nigel Semaj, Jacob Marrero, Bao Nguyen, and other artists from our regional queerscapes. We are excited that special guest Eli Nixon, author of Bloodtide, will be joining us from Rhode Island for a book talk. Stay tuned for more artists joining soon!
