What is Community?

Sunday, June 13, 4-7pm, Stonewall Columbus, 1160 N. High St.

Do you like dancing? Do you like free pizza? Do you like having “a gay old time”? Then add Stonewall to your list of stops during the “Pride Tea Dance Around Town” on June 13!

If “adult beverages” are not your thing, no worries! This event is “dry” (but definitely not thirsty) and is open to all ages and families.

D.J. Brad Henry will keep your body moving as you enjoy free pizza from Donatos Pizza and stop by the cash “mock-tail bar” for a sip of something tasty from our friends at Red Bull.

Sunday, June 13, 1pm, Jewish Community Center of Greater Columbus, 1125 College Ave.

Please join us as we kick off Race Unity Week with a fun-filled, family-friendly, and uplifting multifaith/multicultural gathering.

Additional music will be provided by Latif Shadi.
