Until the 1980s, most LGBTQ+ Hoosiers socialized privately due to safety concerns. On June 30, 1990, Indiana held its first large outdoor Pride event, “Celebration on the Circle.” The event provided a public space for attendees to socialize, learn about their rights, and hear from AIDS activists. Join us on Thursday, October 6th at 6 p.m. on Monument Circle as we gather to recognize this important part of Indiana’s LGBTQ+ history with the dedication of a historical marker placed on the circle.
