Bisexual Organizing Project-BOP is back at it, ready to throw a fabulous party in the new year with Bi-lesque: Under Our Umbrella! The event will feature a variety of phenomenal local bi+ performers and entertainers in the name of bi-visibility! We believe featuring inclusive art that represents our non-monosexual community is an effective way to battle bi-erasure and bi-phobia. By celebrating individuals within the bi+ umbrella in a joyous and entertaining light, who wouldn't want to jump on the equality train to take down the hierarchy? Show is open to everyone 18 years and older. No umbrella can thrive without people to hold it up with pride! #Bilesque: #UnderOurUmbrella Admission: $15 Bring tips! VIP seats: $30 or $75 a table. Contact: Leah.Yoemans@bisexualorganizingproject.org for your seats today! Donations welcome! Contact: Leah.Yoemans@bisexualorganizingproject.org Would you like to sponsor this event?
