An Afterparty of Pride, Power, and Presence
Wednesday April 22, 2026 10:00pm - 11:59pm CDT
Please RSVP here.

Stick around after the B Together Party at Lakefront Brewery for a euphoric expression of culture and creativity showcasing Milwaukee's Ballroom community, hosted by B Proud (B Lab U.S. & Canada's 2SLGBTQIA+ Affinity Network).

We will be raising funds throughout the night for the Milwaukee LGBT Community Center. This is a great opportunity to support a local grassroots organization doing essential work to support the queer community.

Since 1997, the Milwaukee LGBT Community Center has been nurturing an inclusive, diverse, healthy, and safe LGBTQ+ community in meeting their basic needs: food, clothing, hygiene and mental health. They do this by offering tangible resources like a food pantry, a gender affirming clothing boutique, personal care items, and an array of mental health supports and activities.

What is a Ballroom Showcase? A ballroom showcase is an event where house members perform and compete in expressive categories, celebrating culture, identity, and talent in front of an audience. Come see some of Milwaukee’s House and Ballroom community members showcase their talents with night of fun.

What is House and Ballroom? House and Ballroom is a cultural community where chosen families (“houses”) compete in expressive performance events (“balls”), rooted in LGBTQ+ Black and Latinx history.

This event is designed to be welcoming, accessible, and affirming for all.

Accessibility considerations may include:
  • Step-free access and clear wayfinding
  • Microphone use, visible performers, and thoughtful pacing
  • Gender-inclusive restrooms
Community guidelines will center respect, consent, and care.
