ART ZONECome watch live painting by four incredible artists including local artist James Reynolds of Not Your Average Paint and Sip. Or jump into our DIY body painting station where you can paint yourself, a friend, or get a glitter beard upgrade. We’ve got reference sheets for pride flag colors, music to set the vibe, and space to express yourself freely. Over the years, this tent has also become a beautiful, unexpected space for storytelling and healing - one brushstroke at a time.

Plus, enjoy beats by DJ LesBreaux and a full lineup of drag performances.

Explore Jake Hogue’s exhibit on NKY LGBTQ+ history, view archival materials, and celebrate the legacy of local activists who paved the way. Don’t miss the exclusive coloring book, featuring key moments and icons - you can color it, keep it, and share the history forward.

Teen ZoneCreated just for LGBTQ+ teens and allies, this space is all about connection, expression, and support. GLSEN will be onsite, along with other organizations offering resources and activities tailored for teens. We’re also collaborating with Transform Cincy to collect clothing donations for our trans community - because showing up for each other goes beyond just one day. This is your space to hang out, make friends, and be fully yourself.
Family Fun ZoneBring the whole crew for a day full of joy, laughter and family-friendly fun. From face painting, archery, and a giant slip and slide to interactive games, a Photo Booth, and roaming Dino Buddies, there’s something for every age and energy level. We’re also featuring a queer-owned circus and have intentionally prioritized local, queer-owned and BIPOC-owned artists to help create a space where all families feel seen, celebrated, and welcome.
