TOGETHEr
Celebrate PRIDE, Together with Culture Lab LIC!
June 5, 19, 20 & 26
4-9pm
We have live music every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but on June 5th, 19th, 20th and 26th we have some special LGBTQAI celebrations, and we encourage you to dress up, bring your progress flags, and spend the day with us celebrating PRIDE!
There will be fabulous queer and ally performances ranging from drag, comedy, dance, live music & singing between 4-6pm, with live music from 6-8pm.
The shows are outside, & socially distanced (masks required when roaming), and don't forget that we have a beer tent and taco truck in the parking lot!
Our art gallery is open with a special PRIDE themed exhibition curated by Orestes Gonzalez and Efrem Zelony-Mindell. Make sure to check it out... the show is amazing!
Entry is always free but y’all know not to come to a queer production without that cash. We will fundraise for Black Girl Tutors and G.L.I.T.S throughout Pride.
Check out our line-up below...
