“Living Room Concerts” is a performance series presented by The Gift Shop that showcases emerging singers, spoken word artists, rappers, and more. The series not only provides QTBIPOC artists with a space to perform to an intimate and supportive audience, but also works with them to develop their business acumen - empowering them to thrive in the industry.
