The Cambridge GLBT Commission and the Mayor's Office invite you to the 23rd Annual Pride Brunch on Saturday, June 8, from 9:30-11 a.m., at Cambridge City Hall, Sullivan Chamber, 795 Massachusetts Ave.
We will have delicious food provided by local establishments and a few short speeches celebrating the progress for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender people in Cambridge, the nation and the world.
On May 17, 2004, the first same-sex marriages in the U.S. were performed in Cambridge City Hall; now there are 12 states that allow it. We will probably still be anticipating the Supreme Court ruling on DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act).
The annual Bayard Rustin Award will be presented to a person of color with an outstanding history of service to the Cambridge GLBT Community. In 2011 and 2012, this award was given to the late Rev. Peter Gomes and Priscilla Lee, respectively. Community recognition awards and the Rose Lipkin award to a Cambridge Rindge and Latin School student will also be presented. Free bus rides will be provided to the Pride March in Boston
immediately following the Brunch.
