Let's talk real for a moment. You all know how much work goes into putting on an event of any size, right?

Over the last FIVE years, you all have helped us TRIPLE in size! That's insanely awesome! Let's talk about that for a moment. The size alone is insanely awesome, but of course the greatness comes with the work! It now takes more than twice the amount of volunteers, vendors, etc to keep us going!

So let's collectively put our brains together and see how we can get it done more efficiently, quickly and successfully without all the burnout and exhaustion!

Do you have a free hour, resource, suggestion, or ability to join us on this annual endeavor? Drop a note below or email [email protected] if you have any of the above👆 OR below! 👇

First celebrated in 2004, the initiative sought to coordinate grassroots actions that demand an end to violence and discrimination against LGBTQIA+ people.

Today is more than a day of remembrance, it is a day to loudly recommit ourselves to ending all hate, in all forms by celebrating love, unity and freedom to exist as we are!
