The Human Rights Campaign, a national LGBTQ+ advocacy group, will host its annual Atlanta dinner and auction on May 2.
The event, which is the largest LGBTQ+ fundraiser in the South, raises money for HRC with a cocktail reception, silent auction, dinner, and a program with LGBTQ+ speakers and performers.
The program will include HRC President Kelley Robinson, lawyer and television personality Eboni K. Williams, comedian and “Out100” honoree Dana Goldberg, and pop musician VINCINT.
Blake Mitchell will be awarded the Leon Allen and Winston Johnson Community Leadership Award. The award is presented to an individual or group who offers distinguished service and leadership for the LGBTQ+ community. Mitchell is a non-profit leader, strategic consultant focusing on building spaces for LGBTQ+ people, and founder of the LGBTQ+ youth camp Brave Trails.
Tickets include access to the welcome reception, dinner, and optional open bar. Each ticket also comes with a complimentary year of HRC membership, which includes complete access to event information and volunteer opportunities and invitations to exclusive digital events, town halls, and resources.
The 2026 HRC Atlanta Dinner is May 2 at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta in downtown. The reception begins at 5 p.m. before dinner at 6:30 p.m. Tickets can be purchased on the HRC website.
