The Pagan Pride Project, Inc. is a global non-profit organization dedicated to the elimination of prejudice and religious discrimination. Pagan Pride celebrations are held all over the world. Events feature a public ritual where Pagans gather and celebrate the autumn equinox and host a food drive or other charitable activity to share our abundant harvest with others in need. Many events also include merchants, live entertainment, book-signings, workshops and children's activities. Events are media-friendly and designed to provide a positive public relations outlet for the Pagan community as a whole. Since the first Pagan Pride day in 1998, attendance has grown consistently, with worldwide attendance approaching 50,000.
Through our information resources, public events, and media contacts, we hope to challenge intolerance through education.
We wish not only to reduce discrimination against us, but to present the value that our paths can bring to society.
We will not hide in the shadows any longer. We are not ashamed of the Gods we rever and the ways we celebrate! Ours is not a path for everyone; you are encouraged to practice what spirituality you will. But we now claim the right to take pride in what we practice.
