Rise Up LA

Get ready for our biggest community event on the West Coast, Rise Up LA! Join us on Friday, October 18th at NeueHouse Hollywood for a special evening of entertainment and storytelling celebrating some of GLSEN’s fiercest champions, all in support of LGBTQ+ youth! Guests will gather for a rooftop sunset cocktail reception and dinner followed by a program filled with special guests, performances, and storytelling from LGBTQ+ youth from around the country impacted by GLSEN’s mission to create safe learning spaces for all students. The evening wouldn’t be complete without a rooftop after party in the heart of Hollywood!

All proceeds from Rise Up LA fuel GLSEN’s mission to ensure a safe, supportive, and LGBTQ+-inclusive K-12 education for all students. Special guests and honorees to be announced!

There are multiple ways to get involved with Rise Up LA!

• Join our Host Committee to help fundraise and promote the event to support GLSEN’s vital programs for LGBTQ+ youth and inclusive educators!
