Marfa Pride is an intersectional, community-led initiative designed to uplift queer voices and queer creativity in Far West Texas.
We exist with the goal of heightening queer visibility in the area out of care for the community with the goal of spotlighting local talent, individuals, communities, and businesses in honor of Pride month. Marfa Pride hopes to create a fun, safe, and community-oriented celebration of queer life in West Texas over one weekend in June.
