Hampton Roads Pride is dedicated to empowering the educational pursuits of LGBTQ+ individuals and allies in our community. We are excited to announce that applications are now open for our scholarships, which support high school students and individuals attending or accepted into accredited post-secondary institutions across the United States. These scholarships encompass a variety of fields, including trade, real estate, and other areas of study, reflecting our commitment to fostering diverse pathways to success.

The Hampton Roads (757) Pride March is a pedestrian-only event celebrating unity, diversity, and LGBTQ+ pride. Participants will march along the Virginia Beach Oceanfront Boardwalk. The event is open to individuals, community groups, nonprofits, and businesses who support equality and inclusivity.

Following the march, participants are invited to join us at Pride at the Beach at the 31st Street Neptunes Park, featuring live entertainment, food trucks, and interactive community experiences and a chance to relax and wrap up a weekend of Pride events.

General Guidelines:

• All participants must pre-register to help us plan for safety and accessibility. You’re welcome to register anonymously or with initials.
• Signs, banners, and flags are encouraged; no object throwing allowed.
• Further event details, including logistics and protocols, will be provided upon registration.

Colors of Pride: Storytelling with Art is an exciting program by Hampton Roads Pride designed to empower LGBTQ+ and allied youth artists. Participants will receive personalized mentorship and consultation from professional adult artists, providing invaluable guidance and support for their creative journeys. The program also includes exclusive behind-the-scenes tours and workshops with local art institutions offering unique insights into the art world, along with a workshop on storytelling with art from local non-profit partners. The culmination of this enriching experience will be an exhibition of the participants' artwork at Pridefest on June 21st, 2025, celebrating their talents and stories. 

Applicants should be visual artists between ages 13-18 who live or attend school in the Hampton Roads area. Tours, workshops, and exhibition will be local so applicants should be able to attend these in person, schedule permitting.
