Big Gay Dance Party

During these uncertain times we need to stand together as a community and embrace unity. Join us in celebrating all LGBTQ* individuals and allies!

The Somerville Arts Council and Health and Human Services presents a brunch and a pajama style dance party! DJ Stevie Psyclone will be spinning some tunes to get your dance on and a star drag performance by Amanda Playwith.

We also have a brunch recipe for you to cook up!!

Download our Potato Latkes recipe by potato enthusiast and our own Nibble chef Aly López.

Location: This event will be live streamed through our Somerville Arts Council Facebook and is open to all LGBTQ+ individuals and allies!
