On May 17, the West Hollywood City Council heard updates regarding the city’s annual “LGBTQ Arts Festival, One City One Pride,” a 40-day celebration which begins on Harvey Milk Day, May 22 through the end of pride month, June 30. All 2021 pride events, exhibits, and activities are designed to adhere to Public Health guidelines. This year’s theme is a continuation of last year’s: “For the Record,” LGBTQ stories of the past that have often been hidden or undocumented.
“There are 19 programs,” Michael Che, Arts Coordinator for the city of West Hollywood, said. “Everything is free to attend this year. And because when we planned it there was still an order to do everything in a virtual manner, all of these events will be virtual. However, there are a couple of events that are exhibitions that you can experience as a self-guided tour on your own, or as an outdoor exhibition.”
