Fairness Over Louisville

Frazier International History Museum

829 W. Main St. • www.fairness.org

$20 (suggested donation); 8 p.m.-midnight

There’s something intriguing about partying on the roof of a tall building. The lights of the city mix with the sky’s flickering orbs and passing UPS planes to create an intoxicating atmosphere of mischief and delight. The Fairness Campaign will tap into this energy at the second annual “Fairness Over Louisville” fundraiser on Saturday, taking over the rooftop of the Frazier History Museum. There’ll be music, dancing, mingling, a cash bar and guest speaker Contessa Brewer, an MSNBC news anchor. Brewer will speak about the importance of a statewide anti-discrimination law. “She’s a very public personality who has taken a bold stance on LGBT issues — stating that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights are civil rights,” says Fairness Director Chris Hartman. —Sara Havens
