Central Wisconsin Pride is a new group dedicated to encouraging LGBTQ+ pride and visibility! Checkout their Pride Day in June!
Proud Theater is an award-winning, exciting and innovative youth theater program whose mission is ‘to change the world through the power of theater and the theater arts, and to make a positive difference in the lives of LGBTQ+ and allied youth through the tenets of art, heart, and activism’. Founded in 1999 in Madison, Wisconsin, there are now seven chapters in the state. Proud Theater is open to youth ages 13 to 19 who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning or who are allied with the queer community (LGBTQ+). Proud Theater is also open to youth with LGBTQ+ parents. Empowering and creative, Proud Theater encourages young people to share their own stories through original theatrical works which they then present to the community at large throughout the school year.
“A welcoming community of joy, worship, and compassion bringing God’s love to the world.”
