PARTNER WITH EQUALITY TOLEDO FLAUNT

FLAUNT started as a dream of bringing together the LGBTQ community, fashion, the arts, and our allies in one event.

Flaunt is that event. We have a unique fashion show showcasing local and regional designers and artists. Part of our ensemble for the evening will be the Toledo Opera, Toledo Ballet, Toledo Symphony, Toledo School for the Arts, and much more. While this will be our fourth year, we have seen exponential growth and interest in this event. Last year we had over 250+ guests, ten local designers, 120+ models, and raised over $10,000. The much-needed money raised helps us fund our organization and continually growing programming.

The show consists of music and fashion entertainment from the LGBTQ community. The evening's emcee is none other than Toledo's female impersonator Deja D. Dellataro and DJ3PM. The evening's venue will be at Erie Street Market - 201 S Erie St, Toledo, OH 43604 on November 11th from 6:30-10:30 pm. Doors open at 6:00 pm. Attendees can look forward to an evening of one-of-a-kind fashion entertainment and much more. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door. All proceeds go towards Equality Toledo.
