Yakima Pride Festival & Parade
Located in the Heart of Central Washington, Yakima Pride Festival & Parade is a celebration of the LGBTQ+ community in the Yakima Valley.
Yakima Pride represents and promotes unity, equality, and diversity by celebrating, educating, and demonstrating to bring people together in the spirit of open celebration of community.
Rainbow Prom
For many teens the prom is the epitome of their high school experience. But for students who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and/or queer, it can be a challenge to feel like they belong. Yakima Pride decided to start a new annual tradition called, "The Rainbow Prom", where attending LGBTQ+ youth are welcome and safe to be fully themselves.
Pride Day At The Fair
The Annual Pride Day At The Fair celebrates the LGBTQ+ community, providing a welcome for all members of our community, our families and allies for a day of fun and visibility at the Central Washington State Fair. Pride Day At The Fair is presented by Yakima Pride in partnership with several Washington based LGBTQ+ organizations and more.
Reading is for Everyone
At Yakima Pride, we believe that access to diverse and inclusive literature is essential for fostering understanding and acceptance within our community. That's why we're dedicated to making LGBTQ+ books accessible to everyone in the Yakima Valley.
By supporting our 'Reading is for Everyone' book program, you're not only promoting literacy but also championing LGBTQ+ representation and visibility. Your participation helps us cultivate inclusivity, education, and support for all members of our community.
