United Together: Protecting our Pride

In a world where love, acceptance, and equality are constantly under attack, it’s more important than ever that we stand together.

Join us for an event to support the LGBTQ+ community and those whose rights are being violated, as well as those who are feeling scared and angry in this uncertain time.

“United Together, Protecting Our Pride: An LGBTQ+ Panel Discussion & Space for Expression.”

We know the current administration has left many feeling unsafe and unheard. We are here to remind you that YOU ARE NOT ALONE. This is a space for solidarity, strength, and a united front as we stand up for human rights. Now more than ever, we must come together.
