DECEMBER 2017

As we close out this year, we reflect on everything our community has faced, both here in Long Beach and on a national level, and we stand in awe of the resilience and perseverance of our community. This year stands as yet another testament to our commitment to each other and to pursuing a more equitable society for the LGBTQ+ community. From Pride celebrations to QFilms to AIDS Walk Long Beach, this year was our most successful year yet.

We want to thank you all for all of your continuous support. The Long Beach community inspires and drives us to continue doing the work we do, and we could not do it without you. We wish you all a safe and wonderful holiday season and a happy New Year. 

Sincerely, 
December Events
