THANK YOU &
See you next year!

Wow! That's all we can say. The first pride in our Quiet Corner was beyond any of our wildest expectations. The weather was just perfect and more than 2,000 beloved ones came out to take part in making history.

 

A big thanks to Putnam town leadership, to all the artisans and local organizations who set up booths, to the many delicious food vendors, to all the amazing volunteers, to our local police for keeping the event safe, and to everyone who showed up!

​

This was just the beginning. Mark your calendars for Saturday, May 3rd, 2025. That will be the next Quiet Corner Pride! Next year will be bigger and even better than this one.

 

So, between now and then, if you'd like to be part of that event or want to stay connected, please click the button below and share your contact information with the Quiet Corner Pride crew. See you soon!

Quiet Corner Pride 2024 is happening Saturday, May 4th from 12 - 4:30PM in Rotary Park, Putnam, CT! This will be the first pride held in Putnam as well as the entirety of northeast Connecticut!

No matter who you are or how you identify, you are invited to come on out and celebrate all things love!

The theme for 2024: Expressions of love

How do you express love? We want to see!
Since this is the first year we are celebrating Pride in the Quiet Corner, it is important to know why we are doing so. For some of you this will be your 100th pride; for others this will be your first.

Either way, you're in for an amazing time. But before we gather together, let's remember why pride events matter and are needed.
Want to know what is taking place? Click the button below to see the event lineup for the celebration. There is so much to do.

In addition to stage entertainment there will be fabulous keynote speakers, food trucks, local vendors, interactive artwork, fun for all ages, creative competitions you can enter, and much more!

Be sure to scroll all the way down to learn about the Quiet Corner Pride After Party. Let's keep the party going all day long!
Pride is a celebration of all the ways we love. That means pride is not complete without you! This year there are lots of ways to express your love and creativity. Click the button below to see how you can take part and enter a competition or call for art.
Not particularly artistic, no worries! There are still lots of way to be involved with the celebration. If you would like to volunteer for the event as an individual or if you wish to show off your local business + organization, then click the button below. 
We need your help to spread the word! To make this a big success we are asking for anyone and everyone to invite friends, neighbors, and family to come on out.

Share this event on social media, talk about it on phone calls and texts, and print out this flier too, which is formatted to make two copies. If you know of a supportive local business, see if you can post this flier in their window or on their front door.
