Most Pride activities were held virtually or shelved in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and while 2021 is seeing a return to "sort of" normal, not all communities will be holding their usual Pride activities. Here is a list of some Pride activities in our communities so that Episcopalians can show up and support our LBGTIQ+ Community.

Hamilton will hold their inaugural Pride Festival with in-person activities on Saturday, June 5. A march will be held in downtown Hamilton beginning at 11 a.m., and a festival follows in Marcum Park from noon to 6 p.m. Trinity, Hamilton, will be representing the Episcopal Church well at both the parade and the festival, but they would love to have some more support from both the lay and clergy Episcopal community. You can find out more information about Hamilton Pride here, and if you would like to get involved, contact the Rev. Suzanne LeVesconte at slevesconte@gts.edu or 614.600.0110.

The Greater Dayton LBGTIQ+ Center is planning a "reverse parade" on Saturday, June 5 at 10 a.m. on 2nd Street in downtown Dayton. A festival follows at Courthouse Square from 12 to 4 p.m. You can learn more about Dayton Pride here.

Columbus will not hold any in-person Pride events this year, but Stonewall Columbus will hold a virtual Pride March on Saturday, June 19 beginning at 9:30 a.m. You can learn more about it here.

Equality Springfield is organizing the 2021 Pride event for Saturday, June 26 from noon to 4 p.m. Details are not yet all announced, but you can keep up with the latest information here.

Cincinnati will not be holding a parade or festival in-person this year, but a Pride Market featuring LGBTQ-owned and affirming businesses will be held on Sunday, June 27 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Washington Park in downtown Cincinnati. You can learn more about the Pride Market here.

Campus Ministry grants for the 2021-22 program year are due no later than June 25, 2021. The grant application can be found on the diocesan website under Financial Assistance.

Direct questions to the Rev. Deborah Woolsey at revdebwoolsey@gmail.com.

Our diocesan website relies on quality, interesting images to keep the site new and fresh. We incorporate several pictures from around the diocese in sliders on both the home page and most interior pages.

Send in your photos! We're looking for some fresh images of Episcopalians doing stuff in their communities or closeups of elements of our beautiful worship spaces. Photos shot on mobile devices are acceptable, with the following conditions: Photos need to be high resolution (send at largest original size) and shot in landscape orientation (that means turn your phone sideways!). Send photos to Julie Murray at jmurray@diosohio.org.
