Uniting Pride team up to deliver a night of education and information, but
with a fun twist! Learn about the state of the political landscape for the
LGBTQ+ community here in our area and beyond. But also learn how to engage
in political action like relational organizing, phone banking, door to door
engagement, and more - but from drag performers! Yep, you read that right -
FROM DRAG PERFORMERS! The night will cap off with some light refreshments
and performances by our local drag stars. You don't want to miss this NIGHT
OF LEARNING AND LEVITY.
