About this Event
Join us for a fun and celebratory Holiday Happy Hour co-hosted by Pride Northwest and Narwhal Law and Business Strategy as we kick off the culminating weekend of Powerfully Pink. This relaxed gathering gives LGBTQIA2S+ community members and the allies who love us a place to connect, unwind, laugh, and ease into the season together. Come as you are, whether you are feeling festive or simply need a warm and welcoming place to land.
You can expect a cozy evening filled with friendly faces, light refreshments, and a joyful atmosphere that leads into the holiday market featuring queer makers and artisans on December 13 and 14. This event also offers simple ways to learn about and support Pride Northwest’s year-round work, including programs that uplift and protect community members who experience the greatest barriers and harms.
Powerfully Pink was created in direct response to our communities’ significant challenges, offering safe space and support during the holiday season. With community resilience in mind, the activations in this campaign are designed to be educational, entertaining, and centered on visibility for those who need it most. What began as a simple idea has grown into a holiday movement focused on joy, care, creativity, and community strength.
Pride Northwest believes in the power of community care. Narwhal Law and Business Strategy is proud to stand alongside this mission by supporting LGBTQIA2S+ individuals, creatives, small businesses, and nonprofits. Together, we believe in creating spaces (physically and virtually) that celebrate who we are, honor our resilience, and strengthen our community during a season when connection matters most.
