June launches a season of rainbows
Here at The Watershed, we celebrate Pride all year long, with rainbow hearts flying loud and proud on our masthead. Historically, June is the month in which 2SLGBTQIA+ communities and allies celebrate Pride.
However, here in the Canada, June only marks the start of Pride season, so you can expect Pride events to pop up all over throughout the summer and into September.
Here are a few suggestions for events to add to your calendar:
June 28 Surrey Pride Festival
July 13 Pride Run and Walk through Stanley Park
August 2 Vancouver Dyke March
August 2 North Shore Pride Alliance Pride at the Pier
August 3 Vancouver Pride Parade
July 21-Aug 4 Check out Queer Events BC for dozens of celebratory events during Pride Season in Vancouver

Thanks for being an ally! The Association for Mining Exploration (AME) put on a pride event at the Britannia Mine Museum this past weekend called “Old Town New Queens”. It was a really fun event celebrating industrial and queer culture in the same space. Worth promoting next year 🤓
