2023 Rainbow Thanksgiving
November 19, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm CST
Rainbow Thanksgiving has evolved to become a genuine community-wide effort. It takes our small village of LGBTQ organizations to provide a warm and welcoming holiday setting for the 300 community members who cannot get home to see family, do not have a close family, whose chosen family is already here, or maybe they are just looking for an excuse to eat and socialize.
This 100% chef-prepared free buffet spread with all your favorite Thanksgiving items (and favorite vegan versions) will be provided from 6:00-9:00 p.m. at the Fayetteville Town Center.
This is a family-friendly event; kids are welcome to hang out at The Equality Crew’s kid’s table to participate in fun activities.
It takes a small army to make this event happen. If you’re looking to volunteer, you can sign up here! Feel free to sign up for multiple shifts. Please help us make 2023 the best year yet!
Rainbow Thanksgiving is sponsored by Tyson Foods, PFLAG, Ozark Natural Foods, C4 Nightclub & Lounge, Tara Prestridge, LPC, and jointly produced by NWA Equality and the Arkansas Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence in partnership with the Bentonville Follies, Free Mom Hugs, Rainbow Fashion Closet, Siloam Springs Pride, The Equality Crew, and the Transgender Equality Network.
