Info
Ark Valley Pride takes place over the weekend 2/4th June 2023.
“We’re Here! We’re Queer! We’re Rural!” is the theme of this year’s gathering of the LGBTQIA+ community and their allies & families. Not only that, but we are hopeful this year’s event - featuring an afternoon Pride Parade down F Street and evening entertainment in Riverside Park, as well as a Sunday morning Drag Brunch - will be the best one yet!
Bring your own dinner, snacks, and drinks and hangout in the park for the 2023 Ark Valley Pride Kick-Off. Bring your lawn chairs, blankets, and cushions! We’ll do our best to have some available if you don’t have one.
