❝I'd been struggling to find the courage to try comedy for three years! And GOLD was just the welcoming space and the friendly push I needed! I feel really lucky to have found this community (especially during COVID). It seems weird to me that I’ve never actually “met” the other GOLD members because it they all feel like close friends now!❞ — Meghan H., Columbus, OH

GOLD Comedy began with a simple premise: women are funny. (Duh.) Founded by Lynn Harris in 2016, GOLD started as live comedy classes and events, online resources including a one-of-a-kind course, and talent sourcing for teen girls. GOLD Comedy is now the online platform for Gen Z women/non-binary folks who want to become their funniest selves. Our digital classes, content, and community help young women/non-binary folks (ages 15-25, with plenty of room on either side)  build skills and explore career paths in today's most relevant forms of comedy, which in turn helps expand and diversify tomorrow’s talent pool. GOLD turns comedy norms on their head by putting young women/non-dudes first.

We are an inclusive community, welcoming all who identify in some way with womanhood (trans, cis, non-binary).
