THEME THEME THEME!! The Roaring Twenties. Think Speakeasy, Prohibition, Flappers, The Charleston, Gambling, Renaissance, Excess, PARTY. Let's have a ball, BUT do not feel pressured to dress to the theme. Every year we have everything from people in tee shirts and jeans, to folks dressed in mermaid costumes. COME AS YOU WANT AND BE YOURSELF BECAUSE THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN!!!!!
The incredible Adam Faucett and the Tall Grass will be performing!!! If you have not had the privilege of seeing these guys, do yourself a favor and check them out. We are so lucky to have booked them on a rare weekend in town and off the road!!
We are also lucky enough to welcome semi-finalists in the 2012 Arkansas Times Musicians Showcase, Laundry for the Apocalypse!! Come ready to move! Check em out here on fb.
There will be a fabulous Burlesque performance by some lovely ladies from Dallas, as well as some hometown honeys. It's sure to knock your socks off!!!
The night will end with a solid chunk of DANCE MUSIC, provided by DJ POEBOT and DJ CALICO ARMS, so come ready to fucking GET DOWN. Let's CELEBRATE and make this a night to remember!!
The evening will be hosting by the beautiful Miranda Meridian, the loveliest Queen I know. She NEVER fails to entertain. Never. You hear me? NEVER.
There will, of course, be a Prom King and Queen this week. I will take nominations starting now, ending February 22nd!! GET EM IN!!
Sydney Hunsicker has graciously offered to have a make up booth, and take donations to be contributed to the cause!! Need help with your prom or drag make up? NO PROBLEM! Bring a few bucks, and we will get you hooked up.
We will also have Prom tee shirts and Posters for sale, so bring some bucks!!
The proceeds from this year's prom will be split among two very deserving candidates: a portion will go to a local transman, and the rest will go towards throwing a Prom this summer for local LGBTQI high school students. It's a VERY important cause so get your people together and come on out!!
We will have a beautiful photo booth set up yet again this year!! Unfortunately last year, soon after the prom our photographers computer got stolen with all of the pictures.... let's hope that this does not happen again!! We will have a photographer there taking pictures at the photo booth, but also feel free to bring your own pictures and pose at our set up!! These pictures will be put on facebook soon following the prom.
There will be FREE HIV testing again this year. Kill two birds with one stone at Queer Prom! Come to a great cause AND get yoself tested!
The event is all ages, BUT there will be alcohol served so you MUST bring your I.D. If my grandmother comes and does not have her ID, she's not drinking, so bring it if you want to consume alcohol, NO EXCEPTIONS. We want to keep everyone safe. : )
COST: this year, we are doing a sliding scale sort of thing. We recommend you donate somewhere between 5 and 12 dollars to get in, but if you can't, give what you can, that's all we ask. Oh, and have a FABULOUS time. If you donate twelve dollars, you get free beer all night!!!! What a deal!
If you have any more questions, just message me here. LOVE AND LIGHT, Y'ALL!!
