DESCRIPTION:An ongoing mission for the Santa Cruz Guerilla Drive-In is to provide 
 tech-support for other individuals and groups with their screenings. And 
 yet another opportunity arises...\n\n********************​\nSunday April 
 29th, 6pm\nAt SubRosa, 703 Pacific Ave.\n(downtown Santa Cruz // near 
 Saturn Cafe)\n\nKiki (2017) Film Screening Fundraiser\n\nAbout KIKI: "In 
 New York City, LGBTQ youth-of-color gather out on the Christopher Street 
 Pier, practicing a performance-based artform, Ballroom, which was made 
 famous in the early 1990s by Madonna’s music video “Vogue” and the 
 documentary “Paris Is Burning.” Twenty-five years after these cultural 
 touchstones, a new and very different generation of LGBTQ youth have formed 
 an artistic activist subculture, named the Kiki Scene.\n\nKIKI follows 
 seven characters from the Kiki community over the course of four years, 
 using their preparations and spectacular performances at events known as 
 Kiki balls as a framing device while delving into their battles with 
 homelessness, illness and prejudice as well as their gains towards 
 political influence and the conquering of affirming gender-expressions. In 
 KIKI we meet Twiggy Pucci Garçon, the founder and gatekeeper for the Haus 
 of Pucci, Chi Chi, Gia, Chris, Divo, Symba and Zariya. Each of these 
 remarkable young people represents a unique and powerful personal story, 
 illuminating the Kiki scene in particular, as well as queer life in the 
 U.S. for LGBTQ youth-of-color as a whole."\n\nrsvp:

 fundraiser for a documentary currently in production, which is about 
 squatting from the perspective of trans* and non binary people. Taking 
 place in London, UK, this documentary strives to uplift the voices of its 
 characters, who are living on both the fringes of society, squatting 
 abandoned commercial buildings in the country's grimy capital, and the 
 fringes of their own scene, often unaccepted or unsupported by the 
 primarily-heterosexual squatting community.  \n\nThe filming for this 
 documentary is almost complete and needs funding for post-production. Come 
 join us for the night of film and fun. There will be snacks, pins and zines 
 for donation, produced by the collective Bad Table Manners 
 (http://badtablemanners.co.uk/), and of course lots of lovely 
 people.\n\nAdmission is by donation, and NO ONE will be turned away for 
 lack of funds. Suggested donation at the door: Privileged wages: $10-$20 // 
 Waged: $5-$15 // Un(der)waged: $3-$5 // Undocumented: free // (Basically, 
 pay what you think is appropriate. Solidarity is economics!!)\n\nCome at 6 
 to hang out. Film will be shown at 6:30. (Running time 1hr 34min). If you 
 arrive late, we will leave seats open closer to the door. The space will 
 remain open for an hour afterwards for people to hang out and discuss the 
 film.\n\nThe space is wheelchair accessible, however, if you have 
 accessibility concerns please let us know ahead of time so we can be sure 
 to accommodate your needs.  \n\nTrailer:
