Strike a Pose: Boston Pride runs through Sunday, June 11th
This week is Pride in Boston and while I’ve not included everything, I’ve done my best to provide you with plenty of options of events happening here in Boston as well as sharing a few events this week in Ptown, Ogunquit and Providence. Feel free to add any events in the comments section.
This week Heels for Hope fundraiser and a great Drag Show (both at Club Cafe) get the week started off. Later in the week, Bear Pride hosts Bear Bare It All as well as the return of DJ Gay Jim at dbar’s annual Stoplight Party, but for sure the biggest events will be Saturday’s parade, the block parties on Saturday and Sunday as well as the Saturday night House of Blues party with DJ Abel.

Congratulations to BAGLY which received more than $9,000 from last night’s 4th annual Heels for Hope. This ‘unofficial’ Boston Pride event has changed venues three times in four years, and moving the event to Club Cafe afforded the organizers with an opportunity to raise significantly more money for BAGLY: Boston’s Alliance of Gay & Lesbian Youth.
