One of the events mentioned in this article is the newly formed Virtual AZ Pride. The article speaks to community excitement about the new event. From the article: "Arizona Pride It’s been nearly 40 years since activists organized the first Pride march in Phoenix. This year, the annual event will get a new twist, as people avoid large crowds to help stem the spread of COVID-19. The first Virtual Arizona Pride event is happening on Saturday and Sunday, April 4 and 5. Expect an eclectic lineup of conversations, film screenings, music, comedy, drag storytimes, performances, and pop-up shops. The free virtual event is a way to support the local LGBTQ+ community, experience work by local creatives, learn more about Arizona LGBTQ+ history, and show a little love through online donations to participating creatives if you feel inspired to do so. You can find the daily schedule online." -

Virtual Arizona Pride Presents: Third Saturdays
Following the postponement of Phoenix Pride in April, a group of activists and organizations came together to host the first-ever Virtual Arizona Pride. The response was so positive that the team behind #VirtualAZPride decided to continue online programming every third Saturday of every month. As their website explains "Our Third Saturday series will feature a select, curated day programming similar to what you saw at #VitualAZPride, from partners old and new." This flyer (designed by Felicia Minor) provides an outline of the *first* Third Saturday event, and shows the range of programming such an event holds.
