They’ve packed the entire month of June with events, including a drive-thru parade, the Outwatch Annual Film Festival, drag shows and “Friends of Dorothy” community conversations. Sonoma County Pride 2021 ( All month, various times and locations): “Beyond the Rainbow: Surviving, Reviving and Thriving” takes inspiration from “The Wizard of Oz” to celebrate the breadth of the queer experience in Sonoma County. Last year’s Pride was largely confined to monitors and personal gatherings, but as numerous Bay Area counties transition into the yellow tier - allowing for indoor dining, movie-theater screenings and outdoor events, among other gatherings - organizers have struck the balance of safety and salaciousness to curate a whole month of celebration. While San Francisco’s epic annual parade is cancelled again this year, the community continues to influence and elevate the Bay Area’s artistic, educational and even industrial spaces, and the members deserve some hoopla. The Bay Area’s LGBTQ+ community has pioneered movements, resources and community endeavors that have reverberated across the country, from the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to the first openly gay elected officials to the work of Dennis Peron in the legalization of medical marijuana. As the Gold Rush and Civil War induced migration all over the country, people from all walks of life flocked to the city for its financial opportunities and personal freedoms alike the Barbary Coast neighborhood was home to numerous queer clubs and bars in the late 19th and early 20th centuries before Prohibition shut them down. The first inhabitants of what is now the San Francisco peninsula, the Ohlone, lived beyond the male/female gender dichotomy that was imposed first by the Spanish and later other European colonists.

The first official San Francisco Pride Parade was held in 1972, but this land we call home has always hosted a broad spectrum of gender and sexual identity. Anybody who has ever spent more than an hour in the Bay Area knows - Pride is every day.
