The holidays can be a time of joy, warmth, and togetherness - but for many in the LGBTQIA+ community, they can also be a time of isolation or disconnection. Whether you're estranged from family, navigating complex relationships, or simply seeking a space where you can be fully yourself, DBQpride warmly invites you to our Found Family Dinner.
This event is more than just a meal - it's a celebration of chosen family, shared stories, and the strength of community. We’re creating a welcoming, affirming space where individuals of all identities and backgrounds can come together, connect, and enjoy the spirit of the season surrounded by people who understand and embrace the LGBTQIA+ experience.
Who is this for?
Everyone. Whether you identify as LGBTQIA+, are questioning, or are an ally - if you're looking for connection, compassion, and community, this dinner is for you. No one should feel alone during the holidays, and at DBQpride, you never have to.
What to expect:
-A warm, inclusive atmosphere
-Delicious food and drinks (Gluten Free & Vegetarian options available)
-Opportunities to meet new friends and reconnect with familiar faces
-Space to share stories, laughter, and support
-Optional activities to spark conversation and joy
