Her HRC Benefit features new “TV” series Venice

Her HRC hits Portland!

The Human Rights Campaign is hosting a night of simultaneous partying in 35 cities. The parties are targeted to lesbians and feature a screening of the new web series called Venice.

Portland’s version of the party will be held on Sunday, January 17 at The Holocene (1010 SE Morrison,) starting at 7:00 pm. Tickets are $12 advance and $15 on the day of the show. Proceeds from the event will support HRC – The Human Rights Campaign.

Here is the official description of Venice, followed by a link:

Venice is a web soap opera series and the creative concept of long time friends and artistic partners Crystal Chappell and Kimmy Turrisi. Chappell and Turrisi joined with director Hope Royaltey to build a groundbreaking business, production, and content model for the web. Venice developed from Chappell’s commitment to portray strong, decisive, and real characters; simultaneously maintaining creative control, which is often lacking in traditional television broadcasts. Venice will be the first serial that bridges the gap between many worlds — it unifies the gay and the straight worlds; people of color with multi-ethnic groups; and people in Venice, California with the global community (the series will be translated into multiple languages).
