Almost at the finish line! Celebrate with us at the Starlite Reunion Party
Beloved Backers,
Wow! At this moment we are less than $200 away from our goal with the support of 343 backers with 2.5 days to go! Thank you so much for the overwhelming amount of support! Let's continue to share the campaign, reach our goal, and go beyond the finish line! Kickstarter does take a percentage of the money we receive, so in order to actually get the full amount, we need to go beyond our goal. We can do it!
Last night we screened selects from the roughcut and had a discussion with the Starlite owners, staff, and patrons in honor of World AIDS Day. It was a beautiful event and the response to the film was overwhelmingly positive. Thank you to all who came out, and we look forward to sharing the selects again tomorrow night at....
The Legendary Starlite Loune Reunion and Benefit Party.
Can't wait to celebrate with you all!
Please join us for an evening reminiscent of that magical place as we meet friends old and new and pay tribute to DJ Butch
