Just how free can you get? Come to this night of delicious liberation for all queer and trans bodies. We'll celebrate as only Mangos With Chili knows how, with burlesque, spoken word and performance about our freedom to live our desires, a sex toy raffle, a Femme Shark and Sea Creature Ally Kissing/ Spanking Booth, good music, space to chill and space to dance, and much more - all benefiting CUAV and kicking off Safetyfest, CUAV's first annual celebration of queer and trans power in the Bay Area!


Safetyfest is a 100% free festival celebration of all the fierce ways queer and trans people in the Bay Area stay safe and strut our stuff. Our communities already have so many of the tools we'll need to end violence and be truly safe in all the ways we deserve to be--we just need to share them! Proceeds will benefit CUAV's 30+ years of supporting LGBTQQ survivors of hate violence and domestic violence to heal and create safer communities. For more information: safetyfest.blogspot.com
