Get ready to make history and celebrate in style at Badge of Pride: From Silence…To Celebration! – our thrilling Exhibition Preview Event & Fundraiser on Thursday, June 5, at Irving Archives & Museum.

Join us as we kick things off with a ribbon-cutting ceremony alongside the North Texas LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce.

From there, immerse yourself in an unforgettable evening brimming with entertainment, surprises, and community spirit.

Enchanting performances featuring the stunning voice of singer and actress Brett Warner, stirring spoken word by Logen Cure, poet and truth-teller, poetic artistry by Aaron Glover, and a dazzling ensemble from the Uptown Players set the stage for a magical night celebrating the power of pride.

But the festivities don’t stop there! The theme, “From Silence…To Celebration!” will come to life in unexpected ways, leaving you inspired and ready to take part in this pivotal moment in Texas LGBTQ+ history.

Best of all, it’s an evening with a purpose. Proceeds from this exciting event support Badge of Pride, funding the curation and production of this monumental exhibit.
