Brooklyn Pride hosted its 30th Annual Brooklyn Pride Twilight Parade on Saturday by taking over a stretch of Park Slope’s 5th Avenue for a day of fun, laughter and joy.
Brooklyn Pride began in 1996 thanks to organizers’ insistence that since Brooklyn has its own distinct flavor, it also deserves its own Pride celebration. The nonprofit organization works year-round to prepare for June. It’s entirely staffed by volunteers and run on donations.
The twilight parade gathered many local organizations, Brooklyn elected leaders and LGBTQIA+ supporters along 5th Avenue.
