There's nothing quite like dancing under the summer night sky. That's why Sholay Productions is bringing its signature South Asian LGBTQI+ dance party to Cobble Fish at Pier 16 on Friday, June 28. Sholay: Desi Queer Pride on the Pier will promises "a celebration of desi queerness and hip-shaking sounds" with beats by Ashu Rai. The event is free to attend with a cash bar and kitchen.
If you haven't heard of Sholay Productions yet, it's the New York-based organization behind Desilicious, the longest running LGBQI+ South Asian dance party in North America. It's dedicated to providing safe and affirming spaces for LGBTQI+ South Asians, friends, and allies to come together and celebrate music, South Asian cinema, and dest-queer culture.
