Connected in Pride

Tune in via Zoom for the first-ever Connected in Pride, a free virtual pride celebration hosted by seven of Monterey and Santa Cruz County’s leading LGBTQ+ organizations.

This unprecedented collaboration of Monterey and Santa Cruz County LGBTQ+ organizations will feature a series of live and recorded events to celebrate the history, intersectionality, and shared connection within the LGBTQ+ community.

The group decided to host a virtual Pride as a result of the cancelation of in-person Pride celebrations due to COVID19. While many people are at home, the group wanted to provide the LGBTQ+ community with a fun space to connect in pride. The event will include dancing, educational programs about LGBTQ+ history, and other events to celebrate LGBTQ+ history while pushing forward with Pride!
