The first annual Woodinville Pride took place at DeYoung Park in 2022. Local residents had a vision of seeing more LGBTQIA+ events on the Eastside for those less willing (or unable) to attend larger events in the city. We believe that our youth need more smaller, family-oriented, safe & inclusive events closer to home to show the types of resources available to the queer community and that local LGBTQIA+ artists, crafters, performers, creators, etc. deserve more opportunites to showcase their talents in an inclusive, safe space.
The Woodinville Pride Foundation is a community-driven nonprofit dedicated to creating inclusive, affirming, and accessible experiences for the LGBTQIA+ community
right here in the Eastside. Rooted in the belief that everyone deserves a safe place to celebrate who they are, the foundation
produces free, family-friendly events (most notably Woodinville Pride) that bring together local organizations, artists, and
neighbors in a spirit of visibility, connection, and joy. By focusing on accessibility and community collaboration,
the foundation works to ensure that Pride is not just something you travel to, but something you can feel right at home.
Executive Director & Founder
Tanya is a Woodinville resident with an LGBTQ Teen. When her daughter came out a few years ago they wanted to go to a small, local Pride event and found that there were not as many on the Eastside as they expected. Inspired by her love for her daughter (and the LGBTQ community) the idea for Woodinville Pride was born! Tanya works closely with a committee to plan this event and looks forward to years of growth & love to be shared in Woodinville.
