Body Heat Fashion Show

[Jeffery Riggs]

Hey Band Fam!

Wanted to share an opportunity to attend a queer, artistic event that gives back to the community. One of our fellow band members is the founder of Body Heat Fashion Show, a non-profit fundraising event for LGBTQ/BIPOC artists based in the Columbus area. Let's help them make a difference! See event details below.

Join us on November 15th, 2025 for BODY HEAT: a multi-genre runway fashion show and dance experience that celebrates body positivity, queer visibility, BIPOC artistry, and community connection. This vibrant fundraising event aims to support Columbus’s LGBTQ+ and BIPOC creatives and highlight bold fashion, local vendors, and small businesses. We will celebrate its success with an electrifying dance after-party including a live band, DJ sets, and curated cocktails.

Hosted at ‘The Sanctuary’, this event will be an ADA-inclusive and community-centered event. BODY HEAT offers more than a night of style and celebration—it’s a movement to uplift local artists through paid compensation, portfolio-building photography, garment sales, and dynamic exposure. 

Your support through ticket sales and donations from the event go directly towards helping our artists continue doing the important work that they do. So show up, show out, shop, and come together for a night you’ll never forget!

Fashion is the Fabric of Resistance
