This year’s event will be packed full of great entertainment such as;

Along with all this entertainment we will be featuring several of our local drag queens, Black Rose – Belly Dancer and local singer songwriter Melynda Rodriguez. There will many local community resources and shopping from our local vendors. The goal of MoPride, Inc. and the Central Valley Pride Center is to bring people together to celebrate the achievements of the LGBTQ+ movement, to remember our history, and to raise awareness of the work that still needs to be done. www.mopride.org
