The Pittsburgh Equality Center made a dazzling debut with its inaugural Equality Gala on Friday, November 7 at City Winery Pittsburgh, bringing together a radiant cross-section of queer joy, activism, and community glam. With the theme “Bridging the Future,” the night honored trailblazers Richard Allison, Katie Siani, and Amanda Neatour for their outstanding contributions to LGBTQIA+ advocacy across the region. The evening included heartfelt speeches and announcements of PEC’s capital campaign for a new community space. From drag performers to community leaders, everyone came dressed to impress and ready to party.
