This year we will honor Susan Ryan-Vollmar with the 2016 HistoryMaker Award.
From her role in helping bring to light the Boston Archdiocese's coverup of the sexual abuse of children by priests, to her role as editor of Bay Windows during the public debates on marriage equality in Massachusetts, and her support of LGBTQ movements and issues, Susan displays a consistent dedication to advocacy for the LGBTQ community and a passion for uncovering and exposing the truth. The History Project celebrates the often unacknowledged lives of LGBTQ people throughout history. As the world celebrates those who built upon Susan's solid, quieter work, we are thrilled to honor Susan as a true HistoryMaker.
The Lavender Rhino Award is presented to an emerging activist or organization whose impact on local LGBTQ communities deserves recognition. We'll announce the 2016 honoree soon.
We're also pleased to have Etiquetteer Robert B. Dimmick join us as the emcee for this event.
Tickets: $75 each
Host level: $300 (1 ticket) or $500 (two tickets)
