Pride Night

The Storm’s Pride Night celebration will take place on Saturday, June 27 at 6:00 p.m. when the team hosts the Atlanta Dream. 🏳️‍🌈

This year’s Pride merch collection is designed by Monyee Chau, a Seattle-based artist whose work aims to build community while celebrating collective healing and identity. Their work has been exhibited in museums and galleries including the Wing Luke Museum, Museum of Northwest Art, Mori Art Museum and Copelouzon Museum.

100% of proceeds from this shirt are directed by the Seattle Storm to support access to gender‑affirming care in the Greater Seattle community.

During the game the Storm will highlight the 2026 Prism Award honoree. The Prism Award honors individuals who embody resilience, vision, and a deep commitment to uplifting LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. The recipient is selected by the player impact committee, a group of Storm players who help guide the organization’s community and social impact work. 

As a supervising attorney at the international rescue committee, G Lopez helps lead a team of advocates who represent unaccompanied children fleeing their home countries. G’s area of expertise includes advocating for LGBTQ+ youth seeking asylum due to persecution for their queer and trans identities. Their guiding belief is that no child should have to go to court alone. As a bilingual, nonbinary, Latine indigenous attorney, G provides representation and hope for the community they serve at a time when their work is increasingly threatened. In honor of G’s dedication to uplifting their community, the Storm is making a donation of $2,500 to the International Rescue Committee Washington to support their ongoing work.
