Calendar Pick: Pink Pony Prom

The first ever queer prom took place in Los Angeles in 1994, and since then these events have been symbols of acceptance and love, offering people the chance to relive that seminal high school experience in a more inclusive space. Athens Pride and Queer Collective, an organization dedicated to the advancement of equity, affirmation and wellness of local queer populations through outreach, social connection and education, is hosting a Chappell Roan-inspired Pink Pony Prom, promising to be the dance party of the year with music and a photobooth from its sponsor, Sound Insight. Pain and Wonder Tattoo and Piercing Studio will host a percentage night fundraiser with themed flash tattoos.
