I need a new toaster!

In Seattle, Equal Rights Washington is hosting a “Coming Out” Happy Hour this evening at The Wildrose, 1021 East Pike on Capitol Hill starting at 5:30 pm. Yes, the ‘rose is a lesbian bar but all are welcome and anyone/everyone is invited to come out and join our big Rainbow Family.

Also tonight, Social Outreach Seattle is hosting their big annual Gala & Community Awards Ceremony at Neighbours from 6 pm to 9 pm. It’s a 21+ event with a $20 ticket and here’s all the poo plus a list of the awards given:

Social Outreach Seattle presents our 4th Annual Gala & Community Awards Ceremony, Tuesday, October 11, 2016 at Neighbours Nightclub (1509 Broadway), 6 p.m. Doors (Cocktails & Appetizers), 7 – 9 p.m. Gala and Community Awards show. This event is 21+.

Tickets are just $20 and are available at the door on the day of the event, or online at BrownPaperTickets.com: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2626988.

The Social Outreach Seattle Gala & Community Awards is our biggest night of fundraising all year. The money we raise at the event will greatly impact the number of LGBTQ and Allied homeless folks we can provide a hot meal, Christmas card and warm clothes for this winter. Additionally, funds will go towards the planning and execution of our once, monthly self-defense class and other SOSea programs and projects. We have set our fundraising goal for this event at $5,000. Please help us get there by spreading the word; especially on social media. Plus you get to cheer on some amazing community winners as we honor their work!

About the Author: Michael Strangeways

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 14th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
