My Two Dads, curated and hosted by Hart Lang and Jessica Anne

My Two Dads is an arts-based happening. It’s a party with just enough show to ensure your night out is better than anything you'd stream at home. The two dads, Jessica Anne and Hart Lang, united in their love of low-key hangs and sparkly moments, host a line-up of pop-up performances sprinkled across a couple hours—amuse-bouche for the heart and soul with plenty of time to schmooze in between. A short set from the unmissable Trak_Qwn will mark the end of the evening (because we could never send you home without dancing).

featuring interviews, discussions and performances with

Mary Tilden, comedien

Dominique Chestand, comedien

Moxie Simone, burlesque artist

Mabel Kwan, pianist

+ music by TrakQwn
