Gingerbread Sip n’ See 2025!

Each year, San Francisco-based artist Peter Williams / Petarious makes an extravagant gingerbread architectural masterpiece to fundraise for nonprofit organizations and for the past few years, LYRIC has been honored to be a beneficiary.

Last year, he dazzled guests with an elaborate Zoo. In 2023, he recreated a fine art museum complete with miniature works of art!

This year's theme celebrates our iconic city by celebrating one of our signature landmarks.

Can you guess which one?

Donate to LYRIC and
join us on Sunday, December 14th, from 5 to 8 pm for a one-of-a-kind art experience that you won't believe. We hope to have a full house!

About LYRIC

Since 1988, LYRIC has been a vital source of support for LGBTQQ+ youth across the Bay Area. Today, LYRIC’s work is more important than ever. Across the country, LGBTQQ+ youth are facing rising hostility, shrinking safe spaces, and increasing barriers to the affirming care they deserve.

In the face of these challenges, LYRIC stands as an oasis of hope and resilience, providing community, connection, and a place where every young person can show up as their full self.

In the past program year alone, LYRIC connected with nearly 2,000 Bay Area youth, offering affirming and expansive programming from after-school community groups and leadership development to health resources and more. This life-changing work is only possible because of a community of supporters.

Now, more than ever, LYRIC needs strong advocates standing with the next generation of our community.
Together, we can build a world where LGBTQQ+ youth are not only accepted for who they are, but celebrated as they grow into who they want to be.
