Event Type 2: Gala

Join the Coastal Bend Pride Center, a project of the Coastal Bend Wellness Foundation, for a night of celebration and festivities at the first ever Coastal Bend Pride Center Gayla! This event will take place at the Omni Hotel in downtown Corpus Christi on Friday, October 20, 2023. Our guest entertainers will be the Howl at the Moon dueling piano company!

The Coastal Bend Pride Center is constantly finding new ways to support our local LGBTQ+ community. Our newest venture is to create a one of a kind scholarship program. Incoming college freshmen to masters level students will soon be able to apply for a $5000 or $2500 scholarship provided by the Coastal Bend Pride Center. We understand that education is the key to success in our world, so we are committed to helping as many students achieve their education goals as we can. Funds for this program will come directly from our inaugural Coastal Bend Pride Center Gayla through donations, corporate sponsorships, ticket sales, and the silent auction sales.

We are actively seeking community sponsors at all levels from $500 to $10,000 for this event! Please contact Robert Kymes, Pride Center Assistant Director, for sponsorship details via email (robertk@cbwellness.org) or by phone (361-557-7433).
