Hi there, 

It's that time of year again: the time where rainbows pop up in every business window and all over the District. It's Pride Month, and along with it, the annual Pride Parade. This one is special, because WorldPride is being held in DC this year.

Once again, GGWash will be marching in the parade on June 7 along with some of our friends! We believe that everyone has the right to be who they identify to be. Everyone deserves respect and dignity and the right to live in the better region we are creating, no matter who you are or whom you love. In that spirit of a bright, and more diverse future, I hope you will join us at the march! Sign-up for updates on when and where we will be meeting.

Also! Make signs with us on Wednesday, June 4. We'll provide pizza, some jams, and a variety of supplies to make the most fabulous, queer urbanist signs.

And more, below.

WorldPride Sign-making

If you are planning on joining us for the parade, please consider joining our pre-march sign-making event. Signs, art supplies, pizza, and music will be provided. It will be a great chance to connect with others in the GGWash queer sphere before the big day.
