Get ready for the ultimate literary Pride celebration—our fifth annual All Pride, No Prejudice, hosted this year by writers Auguste White (Saturday Night Live, The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins) and Celeste Yim (Saturday Night Live)! Join us as we come together in joy and affirmation to hear from some of today’s most creative voices in queer literature. There will be music, drinks, and (of course) books.

✨ Hear electrifying new work read live by brilliant authors.
🌈 Mingle with a vibrant community of readers, writers, and creators.
💥 Discover stories that challenge, uplift, and inspire.

All Pride, No Prejudice is a party in two parts. Part One: Short readings from the juiciest excerpts by five of the evening’s writers, followed by book signings and mingling. Part Two: Rinse and repeat for the next five writers. Our featured authors will explore identity, desire, and the many ways we make our lives and stories visible. The lineup includes:

• Natalie Adler (Waiting on a Friend)
• Samantha Allen (Puck)
• Nicholas Boggs (Baldwin: A Love Story)
• Julián Delgado Lopera (Pretend You’re Dead and I Carry You)
• John Glynn (The Lost Book of Lancelot)
• Jessica Handler (The World To See)
• Clarence A. Haynes (The Broken Hearts Agency)
• Roya Marsh (savings time)
• Rasheed Newson (There’s Only One Sin in Hollywood)
• Keith Ridgway (Dooneen)
• Paul Rudnick (The Tuxedo Society)

Whether you’re a lifelong book lover or just need a dose of queer joy, this is the can’t-miss literary party of the season.

We offer two in-person ticket options: the $10 Standard Ticket and the $40+ Supporter Ticket. Both provide the same access, but if you’re able, we kindly suggest registering for the Supporter Ticket to help sustain our programs. Please note that tickets do not include books; we encourage you to order in advance online or purchase copies at the event.

This event is brought to you in part with generous support from Brooklyn Org.
