The HRC Utah Steering Committee and Dinner Team cordially invite you to join us in an elegant evening of togetherness and community. The 15th Annual Utah Dinner brings together nearly 1,000 of HRC Utah’s members, friends, families, and allies for an evening of inspiration and celebration at the landmark Grand America Hotel in Salt Lake City. The evening begins with a cocktail reception, where guest mingle while they review a dazzling array of silent auction items. The action then moves to the ballroom, for a memorable dinner followed by thought-provoking speakers and live entertainment. This event regularly attracts some of Utah’s leading-edge businesses and political figures, and it has become one of the “must-attend” events of the year. Don’t miss this opportunity to be a part of history as we celebrate the LGBTQ milestones achieved and rise to face the many challenges still ahead.
