Shawn Holmes, a Milwaukee-based actor and singer, will sing the national anthem and Bucks DJ Shawna will soundtrack a halftime performance featuring aerial silks, rope and a German wheel.
During the game, the Bucks will highlight a recent Milwaukee LGBT Community Center Queer Crafternoon, when members of the Bucks Pride employee resource group and representatives from Froedtert & MCW teamed up for an afternoon of crafting to support the program. Fans at the game can join a special Queer Crafternoon at Section 201, where Milwaukee LGBT Community Center will be set up with crafts including keychains, bracelets and hair tinsel.
Representatives from Free Mom Hugs, a national nonprofit organization that works to empower the world to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, will be set up throughout the concourse to share words of encouragement and hugs with fans. Additional DJs from the LGBTQ+ community, including DJ Femme Noir, DJ Avalon, DJ Travvy Trav and DJ ShayKenn, will entertain fans on the concourse.
