No, Martha Stewart won’t be there in the flesh, but I am willing to bet there will be plenty of queens who will don their most fabulous Talbots-styled get-up during the GayBINGO’s “A Very Martha Stewart Christmas” showdown this season, which is one of the many themes that the AIDS Fund will be rolling out throughout the GayBINGO year.

It’s the 20th anniversary of the famed series, which has raised over $3.3 million dollars to date and supports “partner organizations in the Philadelphia Region that provide AIDS and HIV-related services, education, and prevention including increasing public awareness of HIV/AIDS issues. AIDS Fund is also the Philadelphia affiliate of The Names Project, curating panels of The AIDS Memorial Quilt for a local audience.”

The full schedule is below. All games, with the exception of Black Tie Bingo, take place at The Gershman Y at 401 South Broad Street in Philadelphia. Doors open at 6 pm and the game starts at 7 pm. Tickets are $20-25 and can be purchased by calling 215-731-9255. For more information on the AIDS Fund, click here.
