Queer Prom

Saturday, April 28th, four student organizations affiliated with the LGBT Resource Center; Pride, Women of Pride, Building Bridges, and oSTEM; are working together to plan a Formal Queer Community event: Prom, from which the proceeds will be donated to help fund programs for runaway LGBT youth.  The event will be held at the Holiday Inn Urbana (1001 West Killarney Street  Urbana, IL 61801).  Doors open at 6:00, and dinner will be served promptly at 7:00.  During dinner we have entertainment lined up including stand-up comedy and performances by drag queens.  After dinner, a DJ will play music and we will dance the night away.  The theme 'Marry the Night' is a play on current marriage equality politics, a tribute to the queer community's biggest celebrity supporter, and embracing the time of day when we show our true colors.  Tickets will be $30 per person, and the dress is semi-formal.
