Black LGBTQ+ Beach Day

Celebrate Pride Month at the Black LGBTQ+ Beach Day! Enjoy movement, a beach party, DJ Rae Chardonnay’s beats, and free healthcare services.

The day will kick off with Movement on the Beach workshops from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM, featuring various activities to nurture your mind, body, and health.

From 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM, enjoy the Beach Party and Healthcare Village. Dance to the beats of Rae Chardonnay, a DJ, Arts Manager, and events producer based in Chicago, famous for co-founding the infamous Party Noire. Rae Chardonnay is known for her dynamic musical styling techniques and has held residencies at prominent venues in Chicago, including the late Double Door, The Promontory, and Soho House. She has also opened for renowned acts such as Janelle Monae, Jamila Woods, and Megan Thee Stallion.

While you enjoy the party, you’ll also get access to free essential healthcare services such as testing, COVID-19 and mpox vaccinations, and various healthcare activations, all provided to address the importance of holistic wellness.

Black LGBTQ+ Beach Day facilitates visibility, empowerment, and joy while fostering the health of our community. We deserve to thrive visibly and take up space! Join us as we celebrate Pride Month with a day of empowerment, fun, wellness, and self-care.

We thank the Chicago Department of Public Health for powering this event and supporting our community’s wellness journey.
