Thursday June 25, 2026 | 7 - 9pm

at 33 Turk St. (outside of the Timbri Hotel)

TRANSMARSH is a free outdoor vertical dance performance by trans people, for trans people — and all who love them. The show features B Dean/BODYSTORM, Pangaea, and tome performing on the Taylor Street facade of the Timbri Hotel, soaring over the intersection of Turk and Taylor Streets, the site of both the 1966 trans led Compton’s Cafeteria Riots and present-day for profit reentry housing for the incarcerated. TRANSMARSH kicks off Pride Weekend by rewilding the Transgender District with the trans history and ecology alive in the Tenderloin's soil.

The Thursday evening “preview” performance is preceded by a trans history walking tour led by community historian and advocate Rev. Dr. Megan Rohrer at 7pm–separate registration required (as space is limited). The night also features a performance by Skywatchers, GRAVITY Access Services, and Oaklash Block Party at the Timbri Hotel, with local drag performers and DJs.

7pm Trans History Walking Tour | Free; register via Humanitix; space is limited!

8pm TRANSMARSH preview performance | Free; register via Eventbrite

It is the greatest comeback since Lazarus! Bambi Lake has risen from the dead in the form of a new book. Wow. Did you hear? This book, aptly titled, Devour Me, Again, features poetry and an interview series—words of wisdom and revolution, a time long gone; glitter, glam, queens colliding, and, of course, some gossip…

Out July 21 via Nightboat Books, this volume was edited by August Bernadicou of the LGBTQ History Project, a non-profit digital archive that preserves primary sources of the LGBTQ+ liberation movement and makes accessible thousands of hours of oral histories with queer activists, performers, and “cutting edge catalysts.” Bay Area writer, rocker, and multi-valent performance artist Brontez Purnell contributed a beautifully witness reflection on Lake as a forward; Purnell will read at the July 30 TLM event alongside Donna Personna, Britney Smears, Stanley Frank, Fauxnique, Tahara, August Bernadicou, Birdie Bob Watt, and Nicole Henares and MORE!
