Young Professionals with Pride | October 2018

October 30, 2018 @ 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm

  • « I Hate Karaoke EVERY Tuesday
  • Dollhouse »

Are you an LGBTQ or allied young professional looking for ways to get involved in the community and to expand your professional and social networks?

Young Professionals with Pride (YPP) is for you!

This October, we’re at The Collective in South Lake Union. This is the last YPP event of the year! You don’t want to miss it.

❓ Trivia by Foundation
Enjoy variety trivia brought to you by Jordan Lyon of Foundation
Foundation works to be a beacon of real community—to bring people together and build lasting relationships around the things we have in common, not the things that make us different.

👻 Costume Contest: $1 to enter
We know. It’s the day before Halloween. Which means instead of pretending you hate fun and don’t have a costume you’ve been working on since July, you should wear your costume to YPP instead!

To enter the contest, donate $1 to either the GSBA Scholarship Fund, the Anti-Defamation League, or Food Lifeline at the event. We’ll choose a winner at the end of the night!

We want to see your creativity, your glitter, and your commitment. We don’t want to see cultural appropriation, your costumes that are inappropriate for a professional networking event, or your costumes that are just an excuse to make fun of or trivialize identities or experiences. Questions? Email us at Office@theGSBA.org.

🍦 Food, drinks, and ice cream
We’ll have complementary bites by the kitchen at The Collective, liquor samples by Diageo, one free drink from The Collective’s bar, and ice cream by GSBA member Sweet Bumpas. If you want something more substantial, The Collective’s kitchen will be open until 10:00pm with happy hour pricing all night long!

📋 Voter registration
Democrats for Diversity and Inclusion will be on-site to help folks get registered to vote!

🌃 Extended event hours
5:30 – 8:30pm | Networking + featured nonprofits
7:00 – 8:30pm | Trivia
8:30 – 10:00pm | Venue remains open for socializing, drinks, and food

October’s YPP program will run from 5:30 – 8:30pm. Our generous venue, The Collective, will remain open until 10:00pm, along with their full kitchen and bar. DJ Mixx America will keep spinning until 10:00pm.

How do you define ‘young professionals’?
Ages 21-39, LGBTQ and allied people. We are welcoming to all identities, backgrounds, and professions.
Questions?

Email office@thegsba.org. We’re here to help.

About YPP
Young Professionals with Pride (YPP) events are an excellent way to meet civic and community leaders, build relationships with other LGBT and allied professionals (21-39), and to take advantage of opportunities to increase personal and professional networks through social, educational, and philanthropic activities.

YPP is open to all industries, from tech to corporate to the nonprofit sector, all are welcome!

A priority of YPP is to be inclusive of everyone’s professional experiences and to build bridges between all identities of the LGBTQ and allied communities.

About The Collective Seattle
What is The Collective? – A brand new urban basecamp for the mind, body and soul. A vibrant, members-only community in the heart of South Lake Union that merges all of the different neighborhoods and personalities of Seattle.

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.
