This year Stonewall Columbus is celebrating its 29th Anniversary of serving the Central Ohio GLBT community. It’s an exciting time! We are looking forward to hosting the annual Pride Holiday and collectively celebrating the achievements of the past and at the same time building for our future.
The theme of this year’s celebration is Celebrating our Families.
Stonewall Columbus is thrilled to announce that our Pride celebration is one of the few in the country that continues to grow every year. Our Pride Holiday is one of the top ten festivals in the United States. In 2007 Columbus, Ohio was highlighted in the Advocate as one of the top unexpected great destinations for Pride in the country. Last year’s attendance was more than 120,000 and this year we project that number will increase by ten percent.
Growth is positive; however it does mean that every year the production costs continue to rise. By becoming a donor through our Pride Circle campaign, you can help us to keep producing this cultural event every year. Pride Circle is a group of supporters who contribute to help Stonewall Columbus produce the Pride Festival and your contribution as a member of Pride Circle goes directly to the cost of this event. Please join the Pride Circle team by donating today!
Stonewall Columbus is extremely grateful for your generosity and your ongoing support of the Central Ohio GLBT Community. We thank you for making the past 28 years possible and we look forward to working with you to ensure a future of unparalleled success!
