THANK YOU!
Our Kickstarter campaign has come to an end and we are thrilled to announce that it was a success! We raised over $2,000 and will be using that money to travel to Atlanta, GA on October 24th. We’ll be spending a week in the South, driving around Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, photographing and interviewing queer youth!
The rewards are being ordered as we type, so expect them in November/December! Again, thanks to everyone who donated, your support means the world to us and we couldn’t have made it this far without you!
*For those that donated $50 or more, please email: hello@wearetheyouth.org to discuss your print order!
Gay Prom 2010: The Red Carpet
There have been a lot of gay prom stories in the news as of late. Some happy. Some sad.
In Westchester county, LGBTQ youth have another option in addition to the typical high school dance. This Friday night, Center Lane is holding its 15th Annual Gay Prom. Over 200 people are expected to come as they are; well, a more fabulous version of themselves, since the theme is “The Red Carpet.”
We Are The Youth will be there to photograph the occasion. We’ll bring you the full wrap-up next week!
The event is sponsored by Center Lane (a WJCS program), Westchester’s only community center for LGBT adolescents. It will be held at the Polish Center in Yonkers, NY on June 18th, from 8pm-midnight. If you need more information call 914.358.1006
