THE KIKI LOUNGE

Description

Get ready to VOGUE FOR YOUR LIFE! The KIKI Lounge is back and bigger than ever, happening on the first Friday of each month through January. Join us at True T Studios for a vibrant, Ballroom-focused safe space that celebrates self-expression and nurtures the next generation of Vogue legends. With guest commentators, snacks, refreshments, prizes, and an atmosphere charged with community spirit, this is the place to perfect your 10s or dive into the Ballroom scene for the first time.

 

The KIKI Lounge isn’t just a night out—it’s a refuge and a family. Originating from New York’s iconic Ballroom culture, the KIKI scene offers LGBTQ youth, especially those of color, a community focused on radical acceptance, support, and creative expression. Facing challenges of homelessness, discrimination, and health inequities, the KIKI scene has long provided a safe haven for youth navigating life’s hurdles.

 

So come ready to serve, connect, and express at True T Studios—where the Ballroom community comes alive! 

 

Note: This event is curated specifically for LGBTQIA+ youth under the age of 28, creating a supportive, age-appropriate space where young people can connect, express themselves, and celebrate the vibrant culture of Ballroom.
