Pride Mixer: KaleidoCollective+ AQE+FilAm Creative
During Pride Month, we’re reminded that the queer and trans community is the biggest tent on the planet—we show up in every color, creed, region, religion, gender (or lack thereof), and ability. In celebration of that diversity, we’re hosting a cross-community mixer to meet and mingle with queer and trans entertainment industry professionals and allies from KaleidoCollective, Asian Queers in Entertainment (AQE), FilAm Creative, and other affinity conveners at the top of DTLA in the three-story penthouse at Level, kindly sponsored by Onni Group. Booze, bites, and badass queer and trans creatives, executives, and professionals from all facets of media, arts, and entertainment.
