My friend Felicia, who is currently working in development at GLSEN (the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network) invited me to the Kiehl’s celebration for NYC pride at their flagship store, as well as the Better & Better Benefit Concert for GLSEN. We couldn’t stay long at Kiehl’s because we had to head to the concert. But I met designers Costello Tagliapietra, which was very cool! The benefit concert was really amazing with talented musicians, Andrea McArdle, Nellie McKay, the band BETTY, and Rachael Sage. It was great to see all the people supporting GLSEN and even more awesome that gay marriage was legalized the following day! Sex columnist Dan Savage of Savage Love was there briefly to say that he wished there was an organization like GLSEN when he was growing up to support him. I had a blast and look forward to future events supporting GLSEN.
