10th Annual Pridefest

 Greetings! 

 

This fall Out Boulder will host its 10th Annual Pridefest in Boulder's Central Park. Come be part of planning this amazingly fun community event by attending our first Pridefest Committee meeting on Thursday, Feb 28, from 5:30-6:30 pm at the Out Boulder Pridehouse (2132 14th Street, Boulder, CO). If you want to be part of the planning but can't make this meeting, please email Aubree and let us know what part of pride you want to make fabulous! Join the FB event to stay updated on what's happening. 

 

In the meantime, this weekend is chock full of fun film! Join us at Cloudburst at 7:30 at the Dairy Center this Saturday. We are excited to present this in partnership with Bent Lens Cinema. "Cloudburst" is this year's breakout LGBT RomCom starring Academy Award winners Olympia Dukakis and Brenda Fricker as long time lesbian partners who decide to blow out of assisted living and head for the border to get married in Canada. (Who doesn't love Olympia?) 

 

In Solidarity,
