SUMMARY:Queer Placemaking: A Panel Conversation
DESCRIPTION:What makes a space feel queer—not just in name\, but in spirit? How do places become sites of visibility\, safety\, and joy for LGBTQ+ communities? \nJoin us for an evening of storytelling\, reflection\, and connection as we explore queer placemaking in Madison. Moderated by Giant Jones Brewer Jessica Jones\, this casual panel brings together LGBTQ+ voices from the city’s hospitality\, media\, and organizing scenes to talk about how queer spaces are created\, sustained\, and reimagined.  \nWe will be joined by special guest\, journalist and author Erik Piepenburg. Inspired by Erik’s book Dining Out and his reporting on queer visibility in public life\, the conversation will look at how identity and community shape the spaces we gather in—both locally and nationally. \nPresented by Giant Jones in partnership with Destination Madison\, this event is part of a broader effort to uplift and celebrate Madison’s queer scene. Come to mingle\, connect\, and imagine what queer placemaking looks like now—and what it could become. \nBonus: Catch Erik the next day at the Wisconsin Book Festival for a deeper dive into Dining Out!

Our tasting room will open at Noon so come on by and grab some beers & sit back and enjoy the music… \n1pm-2pm The Stop and Listen – The Stop and Listen plays old-time stringband music with a unique set of instruments and voices. We specialize in fiddle tunes\, old-time songs\, jug band numbers\, and country blues. They bring some serious drive and groove with harmonicas (sometimes a couple at once)\, extraordinary improvisation on cello and fiddle\, banjos of uncompromising size\, and a bass with a chip on its shoulder. Songs are sung with an old-time swagger\, harmonies included. \n2:45pm-3:45pm The Lonesome Cobras – A band from Madison and Milwaukee featuring an unusual take on songwriter music–with violin\, accordion\, upright bass\, multiple vocalists\, and a dark\, bluesy sound. \n4:30pm-5:30pm Jon Irabagon Trio – First-generation Filipino-American saxophonist Jon Irabagon (b. 1978\, Chicago) draws from the AACM’s innovative spirit and Chicago’s storied tenor saxophone legacy. Equally skilled in modern jazz and new music\, he blends influences from late-period Coltrane and modern classical\, composing primarily for mixed chamber ensembles tailored to his musicians’ unique voices. \n6:15pm-7:15pm Mr Chair – Mr. Chair is a boundary-pushing Madison piano trio blending jazz\, classical\, and experimental sounds. Known for dynamic collaborations across genres\, they’ve released acclaimed albums like Nebulebula\, Better Days\, the operatic Sirena\, and hip hop-infused Spectaculous. Their adventurous performances range from A Charlie Brown Christmas to Stravinsky reworks\, all marked by bold storytelling and musical precision.
