The University of Toledo at Toledo Pride 2019

The University of Toledo has maintained a presence at pride parades and festivals in past years with our LGBTQA+ initiatives and our student organization Prism (formally known as Spectrum). For the second year, UToledo is excited to demonstrate university-wide support and are inviting departments, offices, and individuals to join us in attending Toledo Pride on Saturday, August 17, 2019. We invite everyone in the UT community to join us in this opportunity regardless of self-identification with the LGBTQA+ community.

TOLEDO PRIDE

Toledo Pride kicks off on August 16, 2018 and ends on August 18, 2019 with the parade at 12:00 noon on Saturday, August 17th. UToledo will be participating in the parade on Saturday, August 17, 2019 as well as the festival following the parade.
