2025 RAINBOW CONNECTION

& NEW LONDON PRIDE

Join us for 2025 New London Pride Activities!

In 2023, Phoenix Brown, a 7th grade Junior Intern, organized a New London Pride parade all on their own. Last year, Phoenix joined the NLBP Education team as a student intern, and we expanded Pride together! This year, we formed a Rainbow Connections group as a way to connect through storytelling, mentorship, and LGBTQ+ theatre events. Several student leaders are stepping up to organize events this year! All events are family friendly!

PRIDE ON THE TOWN GREEN

Join us for speakers, performances, and snacks at the gazebo, followed by a New London Pride parade around town! We are seeking SPEAKERS, PERFORMERS, & VENDORS.

  • SPEAKERS: If you are a queer person in the area, we’d love to invite you to speak about your experience or share advice for young participants.

  • PERFORMERS: We hope to showcase performances of all kinds! Any act that’s under 5 minutes, appropriate for family audiences, and fits the pride theme is welcome.

  • VENDORS: If you are a baker or craft artisan (professional or hobbyist), we’d love to have you set up a table on the green! You keep your own profits.
