Wikane's A Night at the Disco is a celebration of groundbreaking dance music from 1970 to 1979, illustrating how artists spanning soul, pop, disco, funk, jazz and rock defined nightlife throughout the decade and influenced popular music to the present day. Roberson's Ballroom: A History, A Movement, A Celebration, is a gorgeous and authoritative image-filled celebration of pageantry and community, exploring how Ballroom has served the Black and Brown LGBTQIA+ community since the 1960s. And Ryan's My Bad: A Personal History of the Queer Nineties and Beyond, is a powerful and hilarious personal history that tells his experience of the queer club scene of the ’90s and how it offered possibilities to queer weirdos in an otherwise un-fabulous time. Following the panel discussion, join us for a book signing and dance party with music curated by the panelists! - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/brooklyn/nyc-queer-dance-through-the-decades/100001988360436591 - **Event Categories**: entertainment, parties, art, business, music, literary-art, pop - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour - Location: Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 58.25, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Brooklyn - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene - **lat**: 40.6861766 - **long**: -73.9745672 - **full address**: Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene, 686 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: NYC Queer Dance Through the Decades - **Image URL**: https://dyn-image.allevents.in/generate-image?v=4&title=NYC+Queer+Dance+Through+the+Decades&date=Thu%2C+18+Jun%2C+2026+at+07%3A30+pm&bg=2 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is NYC Queer Dance Through the Decades being held? - **A:** NYC Queer Dance Through the Decades takes place on Thu, 18 Jun, 2026 at 07:30 pm to Thu, 18 Jun, 2026 at 08:30 pm at Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene, 686 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing NYC Queer Dance Through the Decades? - **A:** NYC Queer Dance Through the Decades is organized by Greenlight Bookstore. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
