Turn It Up For Change Event

W Austin, 6:30pm

Join us alongside Cupcake and Sabel Scities as we unveil the artwork by Baron Von Fancy (check out his first stop at NYC’s Pride) in support of LGBT equality and Austin Pride with the Human Rights Campaign. Dance all evening for the best cause and be sure to check out his custom Snapchat filters while you’re there. RSVP here!

Late Night

After the party is the after party, and Austin is full of them. I recommend checking out the Pleasers, Jean, Teenage Cavegirl, and Two Lips show at Cheer Up Charlies. Cheer Up’s is one of my favorite places in town. It is a gay & vegan dive bar in the heart of the Red River district and they always have great live music or a DJ, and the Alro’s Vegan food truck is a local favorite. At Cheer Up’s try the Kale Ginger-Lime Margarita!

Party all night!
