Please join Montgomery Pride United (MPU) to celebrate PRIDE MONTH with the re-launch of our Arts & Music Festival to the River Region and surrounding areas.
The I AM PROUD! Art and Music Festival is MPU’s leading Spring/Summer charity event in the Montgomery, AL River Region. Due to COVID, MPU halted this event for a few years but is greatly anticipating its return.
I AM PROUD! is not just about music, either. It is a day of expression through VAPA (Visual and Performing Arts) with activities such as but not limited to, photography, film, dancing, poetry, singing/songwriting, ceramics/pottery, painting, drawing, and theater.
Each year, I AM PROUD! take great lengths to partner with LGBTQIA-affirming organizations to ensure the experience is enjoyable for everyone by consulting with our diverse and knowledgeable community and implementing ways to make things better and more accessible for all.
I AM PROUD! is a festival experience unlike any other! Everyone is invited!! Spread the word!
