So much work still to do ...

Yep, Joan is coming to town to help celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Lambda Foundation, Pittsburgh's LGBT philanthropy.  The event is scheduled for Saturday, June 21, 2008 at 8 PM.  The Renaissance City Choir will also be performing. 

Sounds kind of cool. 

One thing I learned while reading the press release is that Lambda has granted almost $1 million in the past 25 years.  Wow.  That's a pretty impressive amount of money considering most grants are about $1,500-$3,000.  Way to make the small monies count.

This is something I would go see if I can afford the tickets.  They go on sale Monday so I have no clue how much they cost. 

So, if you are a Joan fan, this is yet another really interesting thing to do during PrideWeek.  Isn't it great that we have multiple choices?

This week's City Paper advises readers on recent changes in local PrideFest activities, including new management, a new location and the expansion to a week-long event.  As we reported earlier, the Delta Foundation is sponsoring a community meeting to unveil the proposed changes and generate community investment in the larger effort (Tuesday, February 5, 7-9 pm - follow the link for more details).

The CP article is a nice update, especially for straight allies who may not be aware of the changes. 

I'm looking forward to the meeting.
