Needham gathers for a "family-sized" celebration to show love for, support of, and pride in our LGBTQ+ neighbors, especially queer families and the youngest among us. Please wear your favorite all ages-friendly Pride outfit and bring your signs of support. Our celebration will have 3 movements:

RALLY!  We'll gather on the lawn at First Parish in Needham to chant, sing, show our signs, wave our flags, and listen to speakers, including Needham High School's own Jesse Young-Paulson, a co-coordinator of this spring's student walk-out in support of queer kids and families in Texas and Florida. Then we'll...

MARCH! down the sidewalk past town common, letting the wider community know that "Needham has Pride!" until we reach the lawn of The Congregational Church, where we'll...

PARTY!  Early 20th Century justice activist Emma Goldman is reputed to have said, "If I can't dance, it's not my revolution." Well, this is our revolution, and we will dance... and blow bubbles, share refreshments, do crafts, get temporary tattoos, chalk the sidewalk, engage in postcard advocacy, take photos together, and enjoy our Pride, because joy gives us the power to make change!
