BRATTLEBORO — In collaboration with Vital Partnerships and Out in the Open, Brattleboro Museum & Art Center (BMAC) is hosting a free dance party at the museum during Gallery Walk, on Friday, June 2, at 7:30 p.m.
The party will feature a DJ, photo booth, balloons, refreshments, and a make-your-own-boutonniere station with Pride ribbons.
The event, open to all ages, will offer a safe space for members of the LGBTQ+ community and others to celebrate Pride month and prom season. The event is free, and no registration is required. Optional donations to Out in the Open will be welcomed at the door.
Out in the Open is a nonprofit that connects rural LGBTQ+ people to build community, visibility, knowledge, and power. The organization is a multiracial social justice movement based in Wabanaki Territory in Windham County, Vermont, and Waldo County, Maine.
Out in the Open says it “envisions resilient communities that work toward the transformation of economic, social, and political relationships. The organization strives to make rural places more welcoming to people of all genders, identities, and orientations, to celebrate and support people who are making radical change, to build solidarity through collaboration, to be anti-racist, and to embrace joy and empowerment.”
