🎤 FEATURED PROGRAM: FIRESIDE CHAT

This month, we are thrilled to bring you something truly special — a Fireside Chat with two of the people at the very heart of the Greater Houston LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce.

Join us as Tammi Wallace (she/her), Co-Founder, President & CEO of the Greater Houston LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce, sits down with Gary Wood (he/him), Co-Founder, for a candid and personal conversation reflecting on a Decade of Impact.

As we celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month—and our Chamber's own 10-year milestone (and history made!)—Tammi and Gary will share the story of how the Chamber came to be, the challenges and triumphs along the way, and what the future holds for the Chamber over the next ten years. This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from the visionaries who built the Chamber from the ground up. As we close in on the end of the Chamber's 10-Year Anniversary year, we look forward to sharing insights from Gary and Tammi.

Thank you to Chamber Board Chair, Stephen Miranda (he/him), for moderating this timely discussion with our Co-Founder's as we celebrate a Decade of Impact.

You won't want to miss this one. Register now and make plans to join us for another engaging 3rd Thursday Breakfast.

LGBTQ+ HISTORY MONTH

Attendees will have an opportunity to check out some of the mini LGBTQ+ History banners that are part of The Banner Project. This project debuted at the 2014 Creating Change Conference in Houston with banners highlighting 27 LGBTQ+ events and people across 11 decades of history. Since then, it has grown to 50 banners and serves as a traveling exhibit offering a snapshot of Houston’s LGBTQ history.
