Evening Entertainment

Presenting DJ Pastel

Columbus, Ohio native DJ Pastel started her journey of djing in 2010. An avid listener and fascinated with music since her early childhood it was easy for her to integrate seriously into this domain. Her first event was at Social Room in Columbus’s Downtown Arena District where she became the house Dj for Thursday nights.

With 11 years of experience, Pastel has Dj’d at hundreds of private parties, weddings, and events–along with some of the hottest clubs and bars in the region!! Pastel is also co-founder of Humans Of Columbus, a traveling thematic dinner party, that brings the Columbus’ creatives together while redefining what it means to break bread with a stranger.

and Jazz Happens featuring Debé
Along with possible special guest spots through the evening!

This fundraising event aims to support and expand Stonewall’s community programs. Unable to join us? Consider making a donation here.
