Hear Ye! Hear Ye!
Gather, good Gentles, and harken to our words: The Royal Realm of Youth Outlook decrees that we shall have a grand festival complete with feasting and merriment as we champion LGBTQ+ youth. Welcome, all, to Ye Olde Dare to Dream: Renaissance Reverie!
Free-flowing libations (open bar), a buffet feast (buffet dinner), a fortuitous silent bidding tournament (silent auction), the Crowning of Champions (annual awards), and generous tithings (fund-a-need/paddle raise) are all features of this most glorious gala.
Enter our magical realm of mystical merriment as you join us for our foundational event supporting LGBTQ+ youth all across northern and central Illinois. This is our premiere gala, and we can't wait to open wide the gates for all of our guests!

Gala Garb Guidelines
We're encouraging whimsy! Would it fit right in at a Renaissance Faire? We'd love for you to wear it! Whether that's historical costuming, knightly armor, a wizards robes, or some other flavor of fantastical flair, we encourage all gala guests to break out their most festive frocks!
If dressing up like your D&D character isn't something you're interested in, cocktail attire is also most welcome. We're celebrating with joyous abandon, and so expect folks to dress for the occasion!
