More than just a party, Fairhaven’s Got Pride is a heartfelt statement of inclusion and belonging. It underscores the importance of LGBTQ+ visibility, which helps create understanding, combat discrimination, and affirm that every individual deserves to live openly, authentically and safely.

With all the negativity and violence in the world, we could use more kindness and community unity.
