Friday Night Out is the most affirming and fun environment for LGBTQ youth. This is a great place to make friends from every corner of Long Island in a place where you can always be yourself. Each night has a different theme. If the night’s theme isn’t for you, that’s okay – you can just chill with friends in one of our queer youth lounge spaces. 

UPCOMING THEMES:

2/24: Karaoke Night

Grab a microphone, choose your favorite song, and get ready to belt it out. Sing your heart out and impress your friends. Not feeling confident enough to go solo? No worries – grab a group of friends and sing a duet or group number. It’s all about having fun… And who knows? Maybe one day you will become the winner of a big LGBT talent show. For youth ages 13-18.

3/3: TDOV-themed Arts & Crafts: TDOV

Join us for a night of crafty fun to raise the visibility of TGNCNB people!
