We Are Family’s Youth Queer Prom Scheduled for April 1st
We Are Family (WAF) will host South Carolina’s only Youth Queer Prom on April 1st, from 6 pm to 10 pm, at Union Station in downtown Charleston. Since 2014, the Youth Queer Prom has offered Charleston’s LGBTQI+ community a bespoke prom experience.
2023’s Queer Youth Prom’s theme is “The Sweetest Escape” and prom-goers will enjoy life-sized lollipops, gumdrop gardens, cotton candy, and chocolate fountains. This event is designed to be a magical night for middle and high school students to be their authentic selves – to dance, celebrate and build community free from discrimination. To provide safety and comfort, security will be on-site and attendees will have a choice as to whether or not they want their picture taken.
Tickets for Queer Youth Prom are free and can be reserved here. Attendees can learn more about the event here and watch the highlights of 2022’s event below.
