🌟 KEVIN AVIANCE 🌟

We were so excited to have Kevin Aviance in the room with us for the 30th anniversary screening of Chocolate Babies at Q***r Voices this year.

His love, his insight, and his unwavering advocacy for our community filled the space in a way only he can. Kevin has always understood that his music is activism — and showing up in the room, fully and unapologetically, is how he continues to move the culture forward.

Thank you for being part of this moment with us. We see you, we appreciate you, and we’re grateful for everything you bring. 💫🏳️‍🌈
