Open Door Pride more than just a festival ahead of milestone

For the past 10 years, Open Door Pride has been more than a daylong event at Sturgeon Bay's Martin Park. It has become a larger movement promoting inclusivity throughout the community.

 

The annual Open Door Pride Festival returns to the east-side park Saturday, serving as a crescendo to Pride Month activities across the state, including Northern Door Pride in Sister Bay on June 16. Over the past decade, Open Door Pride has expanded beyond its annual festival, including a weekly presence at the Sturgeon Bay Farmers Market and the monthslong "What's My Pride?" art installation at a local gallery.

 

Founder Cathy Grier said the event does not try to be more than a local celebration, and she is proud of the impact its message of inclusivity has had on the community, the LGBTQ+ population and beyond.

 

 

 

Featuring live music, food vendors, community resources and more, Open Door Pride Fest will run from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday at Martin Park.
