Celebrate Pride Month with Your Team

Written by Ally Rubin | May 24, 2022 9:36:04 PM

June is Pride Month, and the perfect opportunity to come together with your team and celebrate the impacts of the LGBTQIA+ community, and acknowledge their hardships and history. 

To further celebrate Pride month and the LGBTQIA+ Community, we have partnered with The Ali Forney Center and are donating 5% of our proceeds for Pride experiences booked in June. The Ali Forney Center supports LGBTQIA+ homeless youth by providing them with more than just a safe environment off the streets with warmth and acceptance, but with other comprehensive services such as job readiness training, and ongoing educational support, and transitional housing.

We've compiled a shortlist of a few experiences for Pride Month to inspire you — see below! Or, take a look at our whole collection of Pride experiences

1. Planting Conversations x Freak Plants

In a virtual workshop with Freak Plants, pot your very own unique plant while discussing queer culture, celebrating being comfortable in your own skin, things we feel judged for rather than celebrated, and owning our self-expression and uniqueness. 

2. Drag Bingo x Linda Simpson

Queen Linda Simpson presents her upbeat (and seriously fun) version of virtual bingo — with an emphasis on fun and friendly competition. Linda will guide your team through 4-5 rounds, with a prize for each one, like a glow-in-the-dark sword or a pizza blanket.

3. Pride Month Trivia x Bar None Games

Test your know-how with your team in this fun, interactive, and Pride-themed trivia session. With a specialty music round, picture round, and tons of general knowledge, each trivia event is hosted by a professional performer to keep everyone entertained and energies high. 

4. Sangria & Secrets x Drag Taste

In this digital cocktail class and drag show, get ready to be amazed. Your hosts will join your team live from Lisbon, Portugal, and teach your team how to make the most authentic Portuguese sangria — all alongside live performances featuring fireworks, smoke effects, costumes, and so, so much more. 

5. Drag Queen Walking Tour x Blake Deadly

In this in-person NYC experience, tour the Financial District with licensed drag queen sightseeing guide Blake Deadly. Think plenty of history, comedy and mostly-true tidbits in this hour-long walking tour, which finishes at Cowgirl Seahorse for food, drinks and a drag show — one free shot is included for everyone on your team, with food and drinks extra.
