7:00 p.m. to Midnight: Trans Prom
: Come on out to the first ever Trans Prom on Tuesday, July 28th from 7pm to close!
: Trans Prom is a dance event for trans folks and their close ones (19+) put on by trans folks in collaboration with the best gay bar in town, Rumours. We’ll have incredible music, dancing, and prizes for Prom Royalty (the couple voted best dressed) and Prom Nobility (the two single people voted best dressed)! Music will include modern pop, drum and bass, some club classics, and slow dance songs for the romantics among us.
: As trans folks, many of us didn’t get to go to prom as ourselves, with our partners, or at all; this is our chance to rewrite those memories and take back what should have been ours.
: Free! Registration required to estimate staffing needs.
