Hosting performances from local artists, The Hoot in Columbia created an inclusive space inviting support for an independent queer-owned bookstore, Queer Haven Books, through the "Fund the Queers" fundraiser on October 11, 2024. This was an original distinctive experience in Columbia. The Hoot, also known as the “local roost for odd birds,” is a fun neighborhood restaurant that welcomes all, offering vegan food and hosting fun events. Throughout the night, a sense of community filled the air with people dancing, laughing, performing and, most importantly, embracing individuality. Colorful ambient lighting amplified the space, further enhancing the experience of the performances and overall community. The event featured various artists including Casey Havaich, Gaydream, Eighth House and Maya Wang, each with distinct styles of music, setting their own vibe and tone throughout the venue. Combining support for a small business with entertainment, the concert at The Hoot was a wonderful and special event in Columbia that fostered both community and uplifting others.
