On Thursday June 18th, the nation’s best and boldest transgender and queer performers will kick off the 8th annual Fresh Meat Festival. This year’s Festival lineup includes some of the nation’s finest Asian and Pacific Islander LGBT artists including Taiko Ren, D’Lo and Ryka Aoki de la Cruz.

The Fresh Meat Festival runs June 18-21 at Project Artaud Theater in San Francisco (Thursday-Saturday 8pm shows, Sunday 7pm show). ASL interpretation is offered on Sunday June 21. Tickets are $15. Advance tickets are recommended, as this popular event sells out quickly. For information please visit www.freshmeatproductions.org.
