A FREE Pride Happy Hour celebrating LGBTQ folk getting shit done!

A joint event brought to you by your queer friends at The Asterisk and Chroma Hair

Queer and trans gig workers, business owners, solopreneurs, remote workers, artists, and side-hustlers — this one’s for you.

Join us for a free Pride happy hour where we toast to the work, the grind, the creativity, the resilience — and most importantly, to each other. Whether you’re running a one-person empire, juggling freelance gigs, launching your next big idea, or just holding it down remotely — you deserve to be celebrated.

Tuesday, June 24 @ 5 PM
at Asterisk, Kingston

Music by the vegan vinyl DJ in the Hudson Valley, @GrandFormat

Come through for:

🍻 Beer & wine

🥂 Non-alc beer & mocktails

🍿 Popcorn & light snacks

🎶 Music, connection, and good vibes

Make sure to bring swag to share on the collective merch table!

Share Your Hustle in the Raffle!

Got something to offer? Bring a small service, item, or creative contribution to share in our ad hoc raffle! It can be something from your work, a supportive gesture, or something totally unexpected. Think: a tarot reading, a zine, a neck massage, a free consultation, a pep talk, a weird little object, or anything else that feels fun to give. No pressure—just an open invitation to connect and share what you’re about.
