Happy to wrap myself in sequins and support garments for this exciting and creative endeavor.” \nThe scavenger hunt can be completed anytime during Pride’s Arts & Music week\, starting Saturday June 12th and ending Saturday June 19th. Plan for 2-3 hours of mural hunting and social media challenges. Individuals or teams (up to 6 people) can compete to find the lost stiletto and be entered to win the grand prize\, a 2 night stay at the new Tru by Hilton on Central Avenue. \nEvery person that completes the scavenger hunt is eligible to receive $1 off a beer at Grand Central Brewhouse (21+) and a free yoga class at The Body Electric Yoga Company.
