To celebrate Pride, Indy Gay Market has been invited to launch Big Car Collaborative’s Spark on the Circle event series. We want to recognize the historic meaning behind setting up our grassroots pop-up market in this space especially due to its unique history for the Indianapolis community.
Some history: “In 1984, police harassment and surveillance of gay men in Indianapolis spurred hundreds to gather at Monument Circle in a show of solidarity against discrimination. It was the first large public gathering of queer individuals in the state that some dubbed ‘The Gay Knights on the Circle.’”
This year marks the 40th anniversary of this first pride gathering and we are so proud to have Indy Gay Market occupy this space.
Event details:
We will be hosting 50 unique vendors each day the first weekend in June.
