 A Conversation: The Midwest Queer Underground 

Friday Feb 27 | 5:30 – 8:30 PM |

The series kicks off with a panel at the legendary queer nightclub The Stud in San Francisco. The Midwest Queer Underground features @hotwaxxhale—the Godmother of Detroit House Music and a queer icon with four decades behind the decks—alongside @TheBlessedMadonna, the Kentucky-born DJ, producer, and promoter shaped by the Midwest rave scene and now an international force.

The conversation will be hosted by @kisi_kisi. Together, these three voices explore how Midwest queer communities built lasting global connections, sharing lived experiences and stories passed down by rave elders who laid the foundation for today’s dance-music culture.

DJ sets from @_dr_time &  @thebaptist.mp3 before + after the panel
