Chew Disco was a queer feminist art and cultural activism project founded in Liverpool, England in 2009 by Emma Obong and Khalil West. Primarily a series of club nights and house parties, the project was known for its queer DIY ethos and aesthetic, the stylistic diversity of its performers and programmes, and the political advocacy and fundraising components of its live events. Owing to the sexual fluidity and playfulness of its atmosphere, large-scale video art projections, and emphasis on dancing, its live events and weekend parties garnered comparisons to The Factory and DUMBA.
