The PROUD Picnic

FREE/GRATIS Love exists in all kinds of places with all kinds of faces – between friends, couples, families, kids, or within your own beautiful self. Whatever the flavor, one thing is true – that love needs space to grow and flourish. Let Grand Park be that space – to come as you are, with whomever you want and simply be together…for real. THE PROUD PICNIC invites LGBTQ allies, families and individuals to play, connect and celebrate with music, food trucks, and games on a beautiful summer afternoon in Grand Park. This event launches Grand Park’s PROUD SERIES, a collaboration uniting and reflecting the diverse interests and experiences of the LGBTQ Angeleno community.
