June is her Super Bowl
Pride events need a host who can welcome a first-timer, honor the elders who built the community, keep the sponsors happy and still bring the house down. Abby has done it on the Boston Pride Festival stage and in two decades of Boston and Provincetown nightlife.
She is just as at home at a small-town Pride in a park as on a festival main stage, and available for LGBTQ+ events the other eleven months of the year too.
