Join us on Sunday, June 8th for a Big Lick Bachata Brunch like you’ve never seen before! We’ll be celebrating Pride Month and fundraising for the Roanoke Diversity Center with special drag performances! Guest instructor, Malinda from Queer Dance Roanoke, will provide a beginner-friendly, queerchata dance lesson at 12pm, followed by DJ Perico playing the hottest mix of salsa, bachata, kizomba, zouk, and merengue until 4pm.

Come out to celebrate each other and the beautiful, vibrant, and affirming dance community we’ve created together, where 50% of all proceeds will go to the Roanoke Diversity Center. Don’t forget to come hungry and check out Sticks & Spoons’ special brunch menu—you won’t want to miss this extra fabulous Bachata Brunch!
