YBCA Theater: “Threads of Pride” – Queer Fashion Meets Activism
SF Pride is proud to introduce Threads of Pride, a new program that embodies this year’s theme: “Queer Joy is Resistance.” Through fashion, we honor our heritage, celebrate our culture, and amplify the voices of those fighting for LGBTQ+ rights.
At the heart of Threads of Pride is a powerful fashion show that does more than showcase style—it humanizes the LGBTQ+ community, educates the world about ongoing attacks on our rights, and highlights the beauty, resilience, and joy that define us. This event will shine a spotlight on 10+ NGOs leading critical fights for justice, pairing their representatives with models and activists in a dynamic runway experience. Fashion designers will bring these stories to life, using their artistry to reflect the mission and spirit of each cause.
This is a call to action for everyone who believes in the power of joy as resistance:
✨ Fashion designers – Use your creativity to uplift and inspire.
✨ Activists & allies – Walk the runway and make a statement.
✨ NGOs – Share your mission and connect with new supporters.
✨ Donors & philanthropists – Help turn advocacy into action.
✨ Community members – Show up, celebrate, and make an impact.
Together, let’s create a night of visibility, solidarity, and transformation. Threads of Pride isn’t just a fashion show—it’s a movement.
Join us. Stand with us. Celebrate with us.
