This year, QPA hosted Princeton University Reunions’ first ever Mock Ball!

True T Pittsburgh was born from the underground ballroom community with rich history dating back to the 1990s. The organization in its current form was founded in 2010 by John "Dez" Easter and Duane "Naheen" Binion. True T Pittsburgh is a community platform for LGBTQ resource sharing, queer arts, activism, and entertainment. Through community outreach and safespace making, True T Pittsburgh provides meaningful resources in support and celebration of queer people of color.⁠
