✨ Beneath a desert sky of stars, everything twists and bends – bodies, light, rope, time, expectations. Unraveling stories of seduction and surrender, our kink-infused desert dreamscape shimmers with decadence, daring beauty, and mirage-like transformations. 🌵🌙
This extravagant Twisted Windows Gala features San Francisco-style exquisitely erotic, sensually subversive, and distinctly daring queer performance art.

From heat-hazed tension to soft, shadowed release, this gala invites you to lose your bearings and find something unexpected. Expect sensuality, tension, and the kind of heat that doesn’t fade after sunset.
This event is in coordination with our (separately ticketed) Hot Knots PHX mini-con.

Schedule: Doors open and ambient performances begin at 7pm, with "spotlight" sets at ~8pm and ~9pm. The event runs until 11pm. No entry after 9pm.
Sometimes the most beautiful things are found in the dark; this performance event coincides with the kick-off of the Lighthouse Art Gallery show. Wander through a dazzling collection of works that bend, bounce, and breathe light: glowing light-boxes, sculptural lamps, shimmering art shrines, bold neon, hypnotic LEDs, and mixed-media marvels. From functional brilliance to pure conceptual magic, every piece invites you to linger, explore, and bask in its glow.
