The LGBTQ Center of Southern Nevada is thrilled to announce The Center’s Annual Gala Honorarium 2023 on September 29, 2023, at Wynn Las Vegas. This year’s gala holds special significance as The Center commemorates three decades of dedicated service to the LGBTQ+ community in Southern Nevada and the remarkable individuals who have contributed to its success.
Honorarium 2023 promises an unforgettable evening of inspiration, empowerment, and celebration, as attendees come together to support The Center’s ongoing initiatives, commemorate its remarkable 30-year journey, and recognize the individuals and organizations that have made a significant impact on the LGBTQ+ community.

This year, The Center is honored to celebrate Julie Cameron-Doe, Chief Financial Officer at Wynn Resorts, as the Person of the Year. Julie’s remarkable dedication to equality aligns perfectly with the values of The Center. Her work at a renowned resort company that values diversity sets an inspiring example for others in the industry.

In addition to honoring Julie Cameron-Doe, the gala will also recognize Julian High, President and CEO of United Way of Southern Nevada, with the Lanny D. Love Hero Award. Julian’s relentless advocacy for equality and human rights has profoundly impacted the community, locally and nationally.

The Center is proud to present The Legacy Award to Brian Hosier, the retiring Chief Operating Officer of The Center. Brian’s unwavering dedication and exceptional contributions have played a pivotal role in The Center’s growth and success, notably his instrumental efforts in establishing the new pharmacy and renovating the events center.
Lastly, the Honorarium will acknowledge Lexicon Bank, led by esteemed executives Russell Rosenblum and Stacy Watkins, as the Organization of the Year. Lexicon Bank has been a cornerstone of support for The Center, providing vital financial assistance and unwavering commitment when needed the most.
“We are thrilled to recognize and celebrate these extraordinary honorees who have made a lasting impact on the LGBTQ+ community in Southern Nevada,” said John Waldron, Ed.D, Executive Director of The LGBTQ Center of Southern Nevada. “Their unwavering dedication, advocacy, and support have propelled us forward in our mission to create a more inclusive and equitable society.”
