Farrar, NYC Anti-Violence Project Content & Communications Manager stated, “As a community that continues to work relentlessly to create a more inclusive, safe & equitable world for LGBTQ+ people, we rarely take the time to celebrate each other & the work we’ve all done & FUSION is that precious time where we can leave the work at the door & be present in our queer joy in a safe space. FUSION is also a reminder of who & what we do our work for & it galvanizes our community to endure & thrive despite the ever-evolving challenges we face, particularly in this election year where fundamental rights are at stake.” The Anti-Violence Project (AVP) is the nation's largest organization dedicated to combatting violence against LGBTQ & HIV-affected individuals. In this critical year for our LGBTQ rights FUSION is a Pride Party with a purpose. FUSION goes beyond traditional celebrations to champion inclusivity, safety & activism within our LGBTQ community. FUSION AVP’s Pride Party is back at REBAR Chelsea at 225 W 19th Street in NYC. Come by for drinks, DJ & drag all while supporting the important work of this fabulous org AVP.
