‘Tis the season! Join Inside Out on Thursday December 7, 2023 at East Room in Toronto for an evening featuring a silent and live auction, food, drinks, and entertainment with all proceeds supporting Inside Out’s Admit All initiative.

For more than 30 years the Inside Out Film Festival has brought our community together through cinema, celebrating all things queer on the big screen. However, they can’t do it without your support, especially now as they launch their Admit All campaign, which focuses on assisting emerging and established 2SLGBTQ+ filmmakers, continuing innovative programming, and ensuring the festival is equitable, accessible, and welcoming to all community members.

OUTBID, hosted by the alluring and always entertaining Minhi Wang, promises to be a spectacular evening featuring a live auction spotlighting items from local artist Christopher Rouleau, birch cookie gift sets from Beam Paints, a gift card to high-end luxury consignment store – VSP, tickets to Fran Lebowitz at Roy Thomson Hall, and a luxurious stay at the boutique accommodation at Ode. 

Eat (canapés courtesy of Ricky + Olivia), drink (an open bar from 6:30-9:00pm), and enjoy the musical talents of harpist Leslie Shapiro, DJS Karim, Kehiw, and Tangerine.

Inside Out’s guiding belief that queer cinema has the power to challenge attitudes and change lives continues to this day, and now, more than ever, we rely on the generosity of our film-loving community.
