From Tea Party magazine Editor-in-Chief Esther Lee:
Dear Tea Party Friends,
We’re proud to announce that the TRANS ISSUE #17 will be available any minute now! To celebrate, we want to invite you to join us for a night of ART, FOOD, AND MUSIC at Berkeley’s LA PENA CULTURAL CENTER. Meet Tea Party friends, artists, and writers while enjoying food provided by Cafe Valparaiso and other local businesses [cash bar available]. Music will be provided by Lamya Amir el-Chidiac (aka DJ Chic Sheik).
Plus, Special Contributors from #17–artist MICHAEL ARCEGA, poet CRAIG SANTOS PEREZ, and choreographer SEAN DORSEY–will be there to present their work at 8pm!
Be there for our RAFFLE DRAWING when we’ll give away prizes, such as a 7-entry pass to Osento Bathhouse, tickets to the Fresh Meat Festival of Transgender and Queer Performance, pizza + tickets for four to the Parkway Theater, and a $50 gift certificate to the Global Exchange Fair Trade store!
BRING YOUR FRIENDS, MINGLE, AND EAT and, while you’re at it, help celebrate and support a great nonprofit arts magazine. And who said you couldn’t multi-task?
Cheers,
Esther
