🌈 Charleston Pride kicked off bright and early this morning! 🌈
The parade stepped off at 9:00 a.m. from Wragg Square and wound down King Street, wrapping up at Market and King. This year's Grand Marshal was the College of Charleston's SC LGBTQ+ Archives, honored for preserving the stories and history of the LGBTQ+ community across South Carolina. 🏳️🌈
But the celebration isn't over yet! The free Charleston Pride Festival kicks off at 11:00 a.m. at the Building at 64 in North Charleston, with live music, art, drag, and vendors. Come out and soak in the joy! And later tonight, there's an 18+ after-party starting at 8:00 p.m. at the same spot.
