People's Lighting

Join us Friday October 4th to kickoff a weekend of Pride events in honor of LGBTQIA+ history month.

Our Licking County officials continue to deny our requests to light the courthouse in honor of pride so will keep showing up (and lighting it up) until they do. Don't forget to bring those flashlights folks!
