Last year marked the first incarnation of Lexington Pride Festival, a family-friendly event geared to raise awareness of the local GLBT (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transsexual) community. With the theme "We Are Family," the event saw upwards of 3,000 supporters and revelers. Building on the success of the inaugural event, the theme for this year's festival is "Stonewall Lives: Remembering Our Past, Forging Our Future" in honor of the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots in New York City, an important event in GLBT history. Aside from food vendors, there will also be advocacy tables, musical acts (including a performance by Josh Zuckerman) and other activities planned for the day-long event. For more information on the festival, including volunteer and alcohol and food vendor applications, as well as other local GLBT resources, visit the festival's Web site at www.lexpride.com.
