Pride Month may be coming to a close but we celebrate PRIDE all year long. In honor of those who came before us. For those who currently stand alongside us. And for those who will one day follow in our footsteps 🌈

14 years and shining brighter with every single passing day 🌈✨

Grateful for the life that I’m building while showing up as my most authentic, queer, and unapologetic self. Never thought I’d be standing where I am today and I’d like to think that the younger version of myself is BEYOND proud of how far we’ve come. And oh… there’s still so much more to come.

Thank you to my amazing support system (family, friends, and drag sisters/brothers) who have gotten me to this point. Who helped me take that very first step outside of the closet. Who lift me up during times of uncertainty and doubt. Who constantly cheer me on from both near and far. Who celebrate the milestones, both big and small. But most of all, who have taught me how to embrace and embody queer joy.

Closets are for clothes and nothing more. Step into your truth and watch everything else fall into place.

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

When they try to shrink us, we expand—with color, with community, with undeniable joy. 🏳️‍🌈 April 12, we’re hitting Ocean Drive with Pridelines and the National LGBTQ Task Force—bringing the energy, the people, and the Pride no policy can take away.
March with us. Volunteer with us. Stand with us.

It’s National Volunteer Month and we’re celebrating the heart of our movement—our volunteers! 💛

From organizing on the ground to showing up behind the scenes, your time, energy, and passion make our work possible every single day. Our signature events—Creating Change, Winter Party Festival, and Be You Ball—would not be what they are without the dedication and brilliance of our volunteer community.

You are the reason we can build power, create space, and show up boldly for LGBTQ+ people across the country. Thank you for all that you do—we see you, we appreciate you, and we celebrate you. 🌈✨

Florida keeps trying to make queer life smaller. We’re answering with color, community, and joy that refuses to shrink. 🏳️‍🌈

On April 12, Pridelines and The National LGBTQ Task Force are showing up on Ocean Drive with a float, walkers, volunteers, and the kind of Pride no law can dim.
Come march with us. Come volunteer with us. Come be part of it.

We are heartbroken to share the passing of Jim Tyrrell, a beloved member of our South Florida family. 🌈🕊️

Jim’s decades of service, generosity, and leadership helped shape our movement and strengthen LGBTQ communities across the country. His legacy lives on in every organizer, volunteer, and community member he supported.

Our hearts are with Roger and all who loved Jim. He will be remembered... Forever.

At this year’s #TaskForceGala, we were pleased to platform the Ballroom community and all that they bring to our world and Movement. President of #thetaskforce, Kierra Johnson, mentioned how impactful and important Ballroom is to our work — the resilience that comes from Ballroom fuels us forward.

Special shoutout out to the Houses of Infinity, Gucci, West, Lords, and Dion for giving a special Ballroom-themed performance at the event.

🟣 Stay tuned for more #TaskForceGala recaps!

The National LGBTQ Task Force Gala is the premier annual celebration of South Florida’s LGBTQ+ community. The Gala is a night for LGBTQ+ people and their supporters to unite as a community, honor our heroes, and support the work of advancing equality for all LGBTQ+ people and their families.
