Don't worry, there will be delicious food available on site all day and night. Regular ticket holders are allowed to come and go but must get back for final re-entry at 12AM. ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬๑۩۩๑▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● IMPORTANT: While THIS PARTY has ALWAYS been ACCESSIBLE TO ALL, it remains SUITED for THOSE who would REALIZE that the DEEPEST CONNECTIONS and MOST PROFOUND PERSONAL REALIZATIONS occur when ONE is OPEN to EXPERIENCING CULTURE as it EXISTS on a ONE-TO-ONE level. In doing so, it is PARAMOUNT that you UNDERSTAND that THE POWER OF MODERN DANCE MUSIC is FUNDAMENTALLY ROOTED in the ACT of SOUL-BEARING COMMUNION, one that was BORN out of the IRREFUTABLE NECESSITY to HONOR ONE'S TRUE SELF, ESPECIALLY when SOCIETY AT LARGE would SIGNAL that YOUR HAPPINESS and WELL-BEING are NOT A PRIORITY. In LIGHT THEREOF, this PARTY ASPIRES to UPHOLD the LANGUAGE of this country’s FOUNDATIONAL DOCUMENT as it would APPLY to AN ENLIGHTENED ASSEMBLY within OUR CURRENT AGE, to BACK this LONG SINCE SULLIED DREAM with RENEWED INTEGRITY, in HOPES that ONE DAY, the PROMISE of this VISION shall NO LONGER RING HOLLOW. Until THEN, we CONTINUE to HOLD these TRUTHS to be SELF-EVIDENT: ALL HUMANS ARE BORN FREE AND EQUAL IN DIGNITY & RIGHTS. WE are ENDOWED with REASON and CONSCIENCE, & OUR ACTIONS should be GUIDED by THE SPIRIT of KINSHIP. AND SO WE BELIEVE... to MANIFEST something WORTHY of CELEBRATION on THIS DATE, it is IMPERATIVE to ACKNOWLEDGE that the ROOTS of SO MUCH of THE MUSIC REPRESENTED here TRACE BACK to HISTORICALLY UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES, SPECIFICALLY from BLACK, LATIN, & LGBTQ NIGHTLIFE IN NYC. RECOGNIZING THIS is VITAL to FULLY APPRECIATING the MYRIAD WAYS in which DANCE MUSIC has EVOLVED & CONTINUES to GROW. STATED SIMPLY: DIVERSITY & QUEER CULTURE ARE CENTRAL TO THE PAST, PRESENT, & FUTURE OF DANCE MUSIC, AS WELL AS THE BEAUTY OF WHAT THIS CITY CAN REPRESENT SHOULD WE TRULY LET IT. REMIND YOURSELF OF THIS, IMBUE YOUR PRESENCE WITH COMPASSION, ENTER WITH AN OPEN MIND & HEART, AND YOUR ATTENDANCE WILL HONOR THIS FACT. ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬๑۩۩๑▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●
