About LA Pride:
LA Pride is produced by Christopher Street West Association (CSW), the 501(c)3 nonprofit that organized the world’s first permitted gay parade on June 28, 1970, to commemorate the Stonewall Riots in New York City the year prior. Today, CSW remains an active voice for the LGBTQ+ community of Greater Los Angeles. While best known for producing the iconic LA Pride Parade and LA Pride in the Park, they also organize, sponsor or support community events throughout the year, and work with their nonprofit, philanthropic, and community partners to further diversity, equity, and inclusion.
