12 official and unofficial events to celebrate the rest of Austin Pride
https://austin.culturemap.com/news/e...-austin-pride/
One of Austin’s biggest commitments to weirdness is the entire month of August, which is the city’s very own Pride Month. Organized by the Austin Pride Foundation, this month actually only diverges from the national celebration for better logistics and bigger crowds, but it has blessed Austinites with an additional 31 days of gay, gender-expansive, true-to-yourself fun.
The beauty of Pride is the freedom to celebrate however you choose. For many in the community, that means visiting the usual haunts and strengthening that sense of kinship. But it might also mean branching out. Some of these events are LGBT101, some enable meaningful contemporary art, and some are just a good time by and for those who celebrate the community year-round.
All of these events are made to welcome all, so if you’re looking for a nudge to get out there with your friends, allies, and lovers, they’re ready for you.
