About event
December's Flame is Peppermint Twist
A swingin' affair you shouldn't miss
Adorn yourself in holiday cheers
And dance amongst the glitzy queers
It's been many MANY years since we first kicked off the Portland holiday season with my Peppermint Twist Holiday Dance Party. This was long before so many of the complex modern/retro challenges we're grappling with today.
I thought it might be nice to roll things back for one night to try to remember what JOY and community connection felt like back then (as well as today).
So we gather once again in love, joy, & appreciation of the diversity of our LGBTQ family INCLUDING our allies.
Join your host DJ Action Slacks jingle her way through vintage 1960s vinyl: soul, Motown, oldies, Northern Soul, pop, Latin, garage rock & holiday delights. Rarities & some familiar favorites!
Surprises and PRIZES for some lucky guests who display the most seasonal spirit!
