Question 1

Are children allowed?

Accepted Answer

We’ve opted to make this a family-friendly event. While the queer community as a whole is under fire, trans and queer youth are at the forefront of anti-trans legislation and rhetoric. We want this to be a safe space for them too.

Keep in mind that it will be crowded.

Question 2

Are there any safety concerns due to the nature of the event?

Accepted Answer

While we hope there aren’t any threats or safety concerns surrounding the event, we recognize that the timing and theme of the show could draw unwanted attention. We are exploring options for private event security and will proactively alert the Portland Police Department.

Question 3

Will masks be required?

Accepted Answer

Yes, masks will be required (and provided) at the event. More often than not, disabled and chronically ill queer folks are further marginalized and excluded from community events. To help foster a more inclusive environment and keep everyone safe, we ask that you respect this guideline.

Question 4

I am neurodivergent - will this be a sensory-friendly event?

Accepted Answer

Depending on turnout, the space will likely be crowded and noisy. There will also be live music on the first floor of the venue. If you have sensory sensitivities, we recommend bringing noise-cancelling headphones or ear plugs and a self-soothe kit if you have one! You may also want to arrive early.

Question 5

Is the venue wheelchair friendly?

Accepted Answer

We will be using the front entrance for event access, which has a ramp with railings. The main space on the first floor is accessible via wheelchair. However, the second floor is stair access only. We realize this is not ideal, and appreciate your understanding.

Question 6

Will alcohol be served or available for purchase?

Accepted Answer

As a family-friendly event, we have opted to maintain an alcohol and drug-free space. We will be serving non-alcoholic beverages and mocktails.
