"My own suspicion is that the Universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can suppose." - J.B.S Haldane (Possible Worlds, 1927)What is Pizza Klatch?: Pizza Klatch is an Olympia-based non-profit organization that provides in-school, lunchtime support groups for LGBTQ+ youth and their allies 14 public high schools (and 1 middle school) across Thurston County.
What is a Gayla?: This Spring marks the return of Pizza Klatch’s annual fundraising event affectionately known as the “Gayla.” The Pizza Klatch Gayla is a community concert, fundraiser and celebration that provides not only much needed funding to help Pizza Klatch continue to support queer and trans youth for years to come, but also provides a space for the youth we serve to share their stories and creativity. The 10th Annual Pizza Klatch Gayla is themed 'In the Queer Future' (think Ziggy Stardust, robots, Cyberpunk, the Jetsons and anything you can imagine in between) and will feature a familiar variety of fundraising activities, amazing Pizza Klatch youth performances and headlining band, Seaside Tryst!

Why is this event so important?: With anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric, attacks and legislation on the rise and tragedies affecting the LGBTQ+ community at the forefront of social media programs like Pizza Klatch are vital to the health and well being of the youth of our community and could use your support now more than ever. This auction and raffle will help to raise much needed unrestricted general operating funds to keep Pizza Klatch programming going for the rest of the school year as well as many school years to come. We hope to see you there!
