About
As June is recognized as National Pride month, the Northfield Public Library is set to host the city’s Pride in the Park celebration to support and celebrate the LGBTQ community in and around the Northfield area.
Other exhibitors will include The Minnesota Transgender Alliance, Carleton Gender and Sexuality Center, the trans-owned candle company Homebody MN, and several Northfield churches.
Northfield Director of Library Services Natalie Draper said the event is an extension of the city’s prioritization of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
“Public celebrations of the traditions, cultures, history, and diversity of all in our community can go a long way toward making people feel seen, included, and truly welcome in Northfield. The library is thrilled to be hosting Northfield’s first Pride celebration.”
