SUMMARY:Surprise Ensemble at Gill Park
DESCRIPTION:Surprise Ensemble at Gill Park\nSeptember 7 at 2 PM \nLakeside Pride Music Ensembles welcomes you to our 28th season – “Reflections.” \nThe LGBTQ+ community knows a thing or two about introspection. As we come out\, we unlearn countless norms thrust upon us and encounter our queer community’s vibrant culture. This process of becoming gives birth to our unique personas. Even in a world of unrest and uncertainty\, we rely on our strong sense of self and community. Together\, we assert ourselves and proudly declare our humanity.
