bodyheat is proud to present our first event: CHRIS IS GAY, a fundraiser for Arm The Girls. Arm the Girls is an Oakland-based initiative run by We Are The Ones We’ve Been Waiting For mutual aid fund. They’ve distributed thousands of free self-defense kits to Black and Brown trans women in the Bay and in New York. Check out more about Arm The Girls here:

House music is queer Black music. Techno is Black music. We are only as safe as the most vulnerable among us.

Come join us for a NOTAFLOF night of great music and a special guest artist while we celebrate the music community we’ve built for each other.

All proceeds for this party minus artist travel costs will go to Arm The Girls. bodyheat practices full financial transparency. We will fully disclose ticket sales, travel costs and donation amounts after the party.
