Colorado Springs Pride Honors Club Q Victims and Celebrates Resilience
Pikes Peak Pride Fest in Colorado Springs, hosted by nonprofit Pikes Peak Pride, celebrated the LGBTQ+ community and paid tribute to the five people who lost their lives in the Club Q shooting in November 2022. The festival featured a community-loved and created memorial with handwritten notes of love and support, and the nonprofit is also helping fund a permanent memorial at Club Q. The event was attended by city leaders and the overall message was one of remembrance and togetherness. The festival will continue on Sunday with a pride parade.
