About Us
Anacortes Pride was founded in the summer of 2021 when a group of like-minded folks got together on Facebook and decided to enter a pride float in the Anacortes 4th of July parade. Over 100 community members participated and, while the reception wasn’t 100% positive, much of the city welcomed the new Pride group with cheers and support. Over the following months, Anacortes Pride began to hold its own events and formed a board and an official non-profit entity. Our first Pride Parade will be held June 18th, 2022, in downtown Anacortes followed by a Pride Party at Causland Park. We look forward to seeing you there!
