Last year Indy Pride attracted more than 25,000 people to downtown Indianapolis to help raise college scholarships for teens. Each year, Indy Pride, Inc. provides scholarships to students who have worked to make Indiana a better place for the gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgender (GLBT) community.  Monies for the scholarship are obtained through fundraising events such as the annual Indy Pride Festival. www.IndyPrideInc.com.  This event is free to attend and open to the public.

This year’s IN Pride celebration will begin on Tuesday, June 8th and end on Sunday, June 11th.  The actual Pride Celebration will be on Saturday, June 10th beginning with a parade on Mass Avenue leading to University Park.  Following the parade will be music, food, spirits and fun.



Our headlining act this year will be RuPaul, who skyrocketed to international fame with the release of the CD, SUPERMODEL OF THE WORLD, which was followed by roles in several movies, THE RUPAUL SHOW on VH1, many high profile endorsement deals (including a beauty contract with MAC Cosmetics), a wax portrait at MADAME TUSSAUD’S MUSEUM in Times Square, a best-selling autobiography and fund raising worldwide for people living with HIV/AIDS.  Local and regional musicians such as Jenne Devoe, Cynthia Lane, Ann McWilliams, Justin Ayte, Crackhead Patty and many others will be rounding out the entertainment throughout the day.

If you would like information on being part of the parade contact Scott Van Kirk at Inc. supports and encourages patronage of all organizations that serve our communities.
