The Bent writing institute presents Homo-coming 2004: Oh, What a Feelin'. Kick off this tried and true tradition with a good ol' down and dirty football game. Join us at Miller Field for the ultimate show down of Jocks vs. Poets. Bent students will be competing against the boys of the Emerald City Softball Association. Bring some extra cash to bribe the referee for a few points in your team's favor or to get your favorite football hottie to play a down in their underpants. Half time show will include new & original cheers by the Snearleaders and band music by Seattle's famous Infernal Noise Brigade.

Later that evening, take your ball gowns out of the basement, dust off your tuxedos, and celebrate Homecoming the way you never have before! It is time for the queers to show'em how it's done. Give this tired old tradition some sass and flash on November 20th, 2004 at the LGBT Community Center. In a teal and silver haze of 80's décor, we will dance the night into frenzy with live DJs and wine bar. Come cast your vote for Seattle's First Homo-coming Royalty and take a Homocoming Portrait that will transport you back to the memory of crepe paper and high school gyms. Don't forget your corsage!

All proceeds will benefit Bent Writing Institute, a Seattle non-profit organization promoting and encouraging written and spoken word among LGBTQ people and in our community since 2000.
