Then we will move inside for a catered dinner, drinks, and an exciting array of performances, followed by the auction in which you can win fabulous prizes from local art to international vacations. We will then conclude the evening, in true IOYS style, with some dancing!
We can’t wait to see you at our second-annual Gay-la!
LGBTQIA2+ young people need spaces like Inside Out, spaces built for them, by them, and with them. LGBTQIA2+ young people need trusted adults, a community, and resources that help them live their fullest lives. Every contribution counts toward sustaining this vital work.
