Welcome to the Party Pro Toolkit –
a resource for purpose-driven party culture
The Party Pro Toolkit supports the positive impacts of party culture by sharing stories and ideas to empower participants and producers of nightlife, festivals and Burner culture.
This project began as an MFA applied project to interview professionals of community-led party culture in 2018 and 2019. Podcast interviews were conducted with party professionals in New York, Detroit and Phoenix, discussing not only the what and why of their work, but also how they do it.
These interviews represent a snapshot in time, during the peak of global party and festival culture, shortly before the world was rocked by COVID-19 and sharing physical space became the highest risk to public health.
The pandemic impacted and shuttered music and nightlife venues around the world. Change offers us the opportunity to reflect on the past and imagine the possibilities for the future.
More than ever, we need to fight for our right to party. Together.
