New: The last gasp of the Lost CauseA graphic advertising the Children’s Rainbow Festival hosted by the Georgetown Neighborhood Library, part of the DC Public Library system, on June 1, 2024.A Georgetown public library is kicking off Pride Month with a Children’s Rainbow Festival, an event for “all kids” that encourages them to make “pride bracelets,” dress in “rainbow wear,” and participate in a Sidewalk Children’s Pride Parade.
“For LGBTQ kids, kids who want to be allies, and kids who haven’t figured that all out yet, the event signals that their families, school, and community joyfully accept their full identity — whatever that may be,” Ms. Fitts said. “We want this to be an event for every family, not just ones that already know they have members that are LGBTQIA+.”
“Schools and other children’s groups in the area are invited to march together and represent their community in the parade,” Ms. Fitts said in the email. “We appreciate the help of students from Duke Ellington School of the Arts in planning and hosting this event and we are thrilled that we will have many neighborhood schools represented in this year’s parade!”“Ready to parade? Bring your own homemade Pride posters, or carry one of our mini Pride flags in the parade,” said the email.
