ALMA (Association for Latino Men for Action), Chicago’s oldest Latino gay men’s organization, celebrated its platinum anniversary (its 20th) with a boat cruise July 11 aboard the Kanan. The four-hour cruise departed from Navy Pier with over 75 guests dressed according to the nautical theme. The fundraiser, sponsored in large part by Circuit Nightclub, featured Windy City Gay Idol finalist Michael McBride, who performed two songs, and a drag show by Veronica Zaid. ALMA continues its anniversary celebrations with a picnic Aug. 23. For more information visit www.almachicago.org. Photos and text by Emmanuel Garcia
