Return to Emerald City

The Story Isn’t Over

As we continue celebrating 40 years of care, courage, and heart, The Project of the Quad Cities invites you to Return to Emerald City for the 2026 Red Ribbon Ball.

An evening of emerald glamour, elegant celebration, and extraordinary impact awaits as we continue the journey that began four decades ago. Join us for a night inspired by the magic, beauty, and hope found at the end of the Yellow Brick Road...and the promise of all that lies ahead.

Featuring very special guest Aja of RuPaul’s Drag Race!
