2025 Manifestations
Showtunes Sunday & Miles Long Frost Benefit Show
February 2: East Village, Des Moines
We're old enough to know better than to go out on a school night but we're too you (most of us 😂) to care!!
After our monthly meeting, the siblings went out for a little fun and fundraising for the #commUNITY. We started at Showtunes Sunday, a monthly fundraiser by the Des Moines Gay Men's Chorus at The Blazing Saddle to sing, raise money, and have an adult beverage or 3. After that, we wandered up to The Garden Nightclub to help Miles Long Frost raise money for his upcoming top surgery.
Queer joy is a great form of resistance and there was PLENTY of joy to go around. We ate, we raffled, we mingled, and we enjoyed a fabulous show, all in support of Miles. Over $3,000 was raised and all proceed will help Miles achieve his goals.

Queers and Beers

We're here, we're queer, we (kinda) like beer!
The Priory joined the ISU LGBTQA Employee Network for the first Queers and Beers of the year. We had a blast as always and look forward to attending more throughout the year.
