Author Anjali Prashar-Savoie will be behind the decks alongside friends and collaborators\, soundtracking an evening that reflects the spirit of the book: queer nightlife as a space of care\, resistance\, and possibility. \nClub Commons explores how clubs and parties have long been more than escapism – they’re places where communities form\, solidarities grow\, and new worlds are imagined. This launch embraces that ethos\, celebrating the book not with words\, but with shared rhythm and connection.
