The first Pridefest was held in 1970 in New York City, sparking a movement that has since spread across the country and the world. Pride celebrations have become a vital part of LGBTQ+ visibility and empowerment, and while these gatherings are almost always filled with joy and resilience, they took on a more somber tone as we grieved and persevered through the pandemic.

We are proud to play a role in supporting Out Boulder County’s efforts to foster community, advocacy, and celebration, especially through challenging times.
