After a year in lockdown, Future Front Texas (formerly Boss Babes ATX) will return to The Line Hotel to host Swim Sessions — a four-part poolside series, celebrating PRIDE and our new name.
Come through all summer long to vibe alongside women and queer DJs from 7 to 10 PM CT on the last Thursday of each month. Every session will showcase a lineup of creative businesses homegrown in Austin—and you'll be able to catch our new art installation in hotel’s lobby, too.
Swimming is optional and mutual respect is a must. Tickets are $10 and every cent will benefit community initiatives we care about.
Capacity is limited for your safety (and ours).
— WHAT TO EXPECT AT SESSION ONE —
✰ A three-hour set by Austin-based DJ La Morena
✰ An outdoor market featuring five artists and designers from The Front Market
✰ An installation by multidisciplinary artist Paloma Mayorga in The Line Hotel* lobby
✰ Open-air poolside vibes
— MEET THE DJ —
Latinx Goddess and brown beauty, La Morena makes her audience travel through a series of landscapes in her eclectic DJ sets. Originally from the US-Mexico Frontera Brownsville Texas, La Morena uses her heritage and personal experiences to educate her music selection, always delivering a special blend between Cumbia, Baile Funk, house, Latin hits and hip hop.
This series’ DJs have been curated by FFTX team member Jp Rivera-Felizardo.
— HOW TO ATTEND —
Tickets are $10 by donation (free for FFTX members and hotel guests). Your ticket includes your pool pass. You must reserve a ticket in order to attend.
All ticket proceeds will benefit community initiatives we care about. This session's benefitting organization is Black Trans Leadership Austin, which creates better outcomes for Black trans and gender diverse people in Austin.
— HOW WE'RE STAYING SAFE —
✰ Capacity will be limited to reduce crowding.
✰ All areas will require mutual respect, social distancing and masks while standing.
