Halloween Benefit 2023
Drag Story Hour NYC: Halloween Benefit
It is our honor to invite you to join Drag Story Hour NYC to celebrate an incredible year of programming, successes, glitter, and growth at our first annual benefit. We hope that you’ll join us on Halloween evening, October 31st from 7 – 11pm in Brooklyn at the lovely (and fully accessible) Gemini & Scorpio Loft along with our storytellers, board members, and supporters in a celebration of gender diversity, drag equity, and forward momentum!
This past year has been a challenging one for drag artists and the greater LGBTQ+ community. Yet, against all odds, our programming is stronger than ever, our directive and approach is unflappable, and our community reach extends even further. DSHNYC’s Halloween Benefit will be a fun and fabulous evening where we can celebrate all we’ve accomplished together, with speakers, performances, raffles, awards, and of course, dancing. Costumes and/or attending as the best version of yourself is highly encouraged!
Please find our list of sponsorship opportunities below.
