Pride: love makes a family

Pride season at Multnomah County Library is a special time to celebrate our local queer community, with events and programs at a variety of locations in May, June and July. Plus, we have year-round programming for the LGBTQIA2S+ community!
Join us for joyful events for the whole family, storytimes, crafts, book displays, a table at the Portland Pride Waterfront Festival and much more.
