Leerlo en español!February 22nd, 2008 Filed under: Events by davidmThis year’s Portland Latino Gay Pride Celebration most exciting change is the expansion from a one day event to four days (Thursday, June 5th – Sunday, June 8th). As you will see from our list of events, we will have something for everybody:
*Gaytino! One man show featuring actor, producer, writer Daniel Guerrero
*Screening of award Winning Documentary, Lalo Guerrero: The Original Chicano
*Latino Gay Pride Papi Dance Party @ Boxxes – Featured DJ and Performers
*Chicas Who Brunch - Speaker and Networking Social
*Latino Gay Pride Festival – information booths, entertainers, speakers, food and family fun.
This year’s theme for the celebration will be, PAPIS y CHICAS: Portland Latino Gay Pride 2008
In addition to founding partners, El Hispanic Newspaper and Jupiter Hotel; Miracle Theatre, Boxxes Nightclub and Crush Restaurant & Bar have joined us to make the 2008 Portland Latino Gay Pride Celebration unforgettable. We have also moved into the “blog” arena. Thank you to Tinderboxcreative and owner Jeremy Wilkins, Portland Latino Gay Pride now has its very own website and blog.
Finally, we have just learned that ¡Gaytino! the one man show featuring actor Daniel Guerrero will be performed at the nationally acclaimed Kennedy Center in Washington DC. We are fortunate to have partnered with Miracle Theatre to bring this performance to Portland.
There are many ways to become involved this year. We will be holding planning meetings and everyone is welcome to attend. If you have any ideas for the celebration and suggestions of potential partners and sponsors, please let me know. It’s going to be an amazing celebration and all Papis and Chicas in Portland are going to be proud!
