About Pride & Purpose

Join us Wednesday, April 19, 2023
Mint Museum Uptown
6:00pm  – 8:30pm

Pride and Purpose, presented by Bank of America, benefits PFLAG Charlotte’s mission to create a caring, just, and affirming community for for LGBTQ+ people and those who love them.  We invite you to be a sponsor, donate a silent auction item, and join us for an evening of inspiration and celebration!

The evening’s short program features a special guest appearance by PFLAG National Executive Director Brian Bond. Entertainment includes performances by Charlotte Pride Band, spoken ward by Charlotte’s own Poet Laureate J Ward, live art by Shane Manier, and interactive experiences with emerging artists Storm Kimble and Alex Wrinkle.  Enjoy browsing and bidding at the silent auction and mixing and mingling as you reconnect with old friends and make new ones. Your ticket includes event admission, heavy hors d’oeuvres, and an open bar (beer and wine). We suggest dressy casual attire. Be you; be comfortable. We can’t wait to spend the evening with you. Ticket sales end April 7!

We kindly request all guests attending in-person indoor events hosted and/or produced by PFLAG Charlotte be fully vaccinated.
