This year’s Sun City Pride Parade will be held on June 29 showcasing the theme, “Spotlight on Pride-Celebrating LGBTQIA+ Stage and Screen.” In this episode, we talk to Christopher Eck, President of Sun City Pride, who is joined by Richard Ornelas and Ernesto Torres, Co-Directors of the 2024 Sun City Pride Parade. They tell us about how Sun City Pride began by envisioning a parade which later gave birth to the non-profit organization, Sun City Pride which works to provide visibility, representation and advocacy for the LGBTQ community. Over the past 19 years, Sun City Pride has grown to include several community and philanthropic efforts including Easter Baskets and School Bags for children as well as awarding scholarships for LGBTQ students.  We talk to them about the creative opportunities during Pride Month and how our community can support – and even march in this year’s parade.
