This unique concert event will feature meaningful music by musicians who want to bring forward and celebrate the 2SLGBTQIA+ community as well as a discussion about what it means to be an ally to people who identify as 2SLGBTQIA+, including the notion of unconscious bias and how it can affect allyship.
