The First-Ever Eastside Pride Family Picnic in Anderson Twp

A group of friends in the Anderson Township/Newtown area is hosting the first-ever community event to celebrate and affirm our LGBTQIA+ community on Sunday, June 2 from 1 to 5 pm EDT at St. Tim's Episcopal Church on Beechmont Avenue in Anderson Township, an Eastside Pride Family Picnic.

St. Tim's is generously donating their space -- and we expect other partners will come on board-- but we are asking the community to partner with us to hold this family-friendly event without charging admission so that we can welcome ALL and help connect allies, resources and friendly businesses and ministries while making new friends and showing what is possible on the east side.

Our expected costs include:

In order to move quickly and pull off a successful inaugural event, we would greatly appreciate your donations to ensure we can book quality vendors and entertainment. Any leftover funds will go toward staging an even bigger, better Eastside Pride in 2025 (including setting up our own org status for event rental, insurance and other purposes).

Please reach out with any questions. If you can't donate, please share this page, and don't forget to come out on June 2 for some family-friendly fun for all ages!
