50 Years of Pride: 1974 - 2024
2024 marks the 50 year anniversary since 200+ LGBTQIA+ people gathered publicly in Seattle as an act of collective resistance. Their purpose was clear: to expel shame and to stand in defiance of those who wished to keep us hidden and disempowered. They were no longer willing to wait, no longer willing to hide, no longer willing to be denied the right to exist.
This anniversary is a powerful opportunity to reflect on the unwavering resilience of our community, both living and ancestral. Our theme for 2024 is an embodiment of our 1974's community echoing cry: NOW!
This word transcends time, encompassing our past, grounding us in the present, and propelling us into the future.
Now is the moment.
Now is our legacy.
Now is forever.
We are excited to have you join us in a year dedicated to exploring, celebrating, and remembering our cultural history and stewarding the legacy of the trailblazers who demanded our rights, then and now.
