About
Mythos Dance Party : Make it Legendary
Northern Xposure Weekend – affectionately dubbed “NX ” by veteran attendees -- is a Seattle social and fundraising event that takes place each August. Produced by Rich Kaalaas of Rein Fire Ranch Productions, and the NX volunteers, it raises money for Lambert House, a resource center for LGBT youth. Various social gatherings – beach parties, dances, a boat cruise and other events – allow attendees to enjoy one of the most beautiful places in the country at a particularly beautiful time of year.Since its inception in 2000, Northern Xposure Weekend has raised more than $100,000 for Lambert House. Because of this amazing effort by a generous group of friends, Lambert House has kept its doors open to the gay youth of today, helping to shape those who will be gay leaders tomorrow.
Begun primarily as a social gathering at Rein Fire Ranch, the weekend’s series of events has changed over the years, but its purpose – enjoying the company of friends while helping Lambert House – remains the same.
Retooled in 2004, NX took the form of a one-night collaborative effort with CastroBear Presents, and fabled DJ John LePage brought SWEAT to Seattle in a whole new way. The following year, taking it Off the Farm, and into the Big City, NX moved onto the calendar of Seattle-wide gay events, and again helped publicize the important work of Lambert House. A year later, under the Viking-themed banner of You Can't Pillage The Willing -- CastroBear Presents, BigMuscle.com, and others teamed with Rich and The NX Team to present the spinning talents of Kimberly S, Blaine Soileau, John LePage, and a returning performance of DJ Sam Andrews.
This year, NX continues to grow and evolve, the biggest news being the partnering with The Wildrose, to host the first NX Womens event ValkyrieQueer!. Always striving to be inclusive of the whole community, this event will definitely not be one to miss. DJ Jodi Bon Jodi will be laying down the tracks, and setting the tone for a weekend where anyone in or visiting Seattle can enjoy a great weekend of Socializing, Dancing, Food and Fun!
We hope to see you here.
