The weekend begins with LGBTQ+ Movie and Mocktail Night: Will & Harper on Friday, Aug. 14, from 4:30-6:30 pm at Flintridge Center, Suite 117, 236 W. Mountain St., Pasadena. The free event invites attendees to enjoy mocktails while watching the acclaimed 2024 documentary Will & Harper.
The film follows actor Will Ferrell and his longtime friend Harper Steele on a 17-day road trip across the United States as they reconnect after Steele’s gender transition and navigate her new life as a transgender woman. The documentary has received dozens of award nominations and wins, including a 2025 Peabody Award, and has become a catalyst for intergenerational conversations about gender transition. Allies are welcome to attend. (Click for information).
