The LGBTQ-supportive Samara Fund at the Vermont Community Foundation is set to celebrate its 25th anniversary in dramatic fashion. Alison Bechdel, the Vermont cartoonist laureate and author of the graphic memoir Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic, will be a special guest alongside Broadway actress Beth Malone (pictured). The two women step into the spotlight to discuss the creation of the Tony Award-winning musical adaptation of Fun Home, in which Malone, who will also regale theater lovers with several songs, portrayed Bechdel. Admission includes drinks, hors d’oeuvres and plenty of star power.
Price: $50.
