Celebrating the allies and advocates who shine light and hope for our LGBTQ+ Community
About this Event

Join us for an unforgettable night of dinner, stories, and celebration. The Prism Awards Gala returns on Sunday, October 5th.

Each year, The Frederick Center awards distinguished allies, advocates, and organizations that go above and beyond to protect and advance LGBTQ+ rights and the well-being of our local LGBTQ+ community in Central Maryland. For over a decade, we have celebrated countless heroes with our Prism Awards, and we hope you will join us in honoring their work.

Enjoy:

  • A festive cocktail hour
  • A decadent meal followed by our annual award ceremony
  • Heartfelt stories of advocacy, passion, and life-changing moments
  • Talented performances and special guests
  • One-of-a kind art and experiences at our silent auction and raffle

Funds raised by the Prism Awards Gala directly contribute to the mission and programs of The Frederick Center, funding life-changing peer support programs, educational outreach, and social events that help our LGBTQ+ community thrive.
