In addition to the traditional parade and street festival, the Wilton Manors Stonewall Pride celebration will include a new arts showcase, “Our Night Out,” on Friday, June 15. 

Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning actress Sharon Gless will lead the Wilton Manors Stonewall Pride Parade as grand marshal on Saturday. She’s known for playing strong, determined women on television, stage and screen - her resume includes “Cagney & Lacey,” “Queer as Folk” and “Burn Notice”— but that’s also a role she has played offstage throughout her career. 

PRICE, Utah (AP) — April Hoagland and Beckie Peirce, a Utah couple who married last year, went to a routine hearing Tuesday expecting to hear an update on how long it would be before they could adopt the baby girl they'd been raising as foster parents for three months.

At last year’s Stonewall Parade and Festival, Progress Bar had one headliner. That wasn’t enough for this year.

Although the June 18 Stonewall festival is a public affair, organizers have left the entertainment to the private sector.

There will not be competing gay pride events in Wilton Manors this year during June.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Less than a year after big business helped pressure Indiana Republicans to scale back their contentious new religious objections law, the state's powerful business lobby has decided that step wasn't enough.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Kentucky County Clerk Kim Davis has lost another bid to delay issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

In addition to the traditional parade and street festival, the Wilton Manors Stonewall Pride celebration will include a new arts showcase, “Our Night Out,” on Friday, June 15.

Stonewall isn’t until Saturday but there’s already a heavy police presence along Wilton Drive in case someone tries to copy the massacre that happened in Orlando Sunday.

‘Blowing your own horn’ has always been considered a rather vain human trait. Despite the unseemly conduct of the White House primary resident, it remains so.

The pavement is hot on the streets of New York in July. 

All is well that ends well. Perhaps.

Public safety was top of mind for event organizers and law enforcement who were patrolling and assessing multiple activities up and down Wilton Drive June 16. To mitigate potential issues, a long stretch of Wilton Drive was closed to traffic, for the safety and logistics of the parade and for exhibitors and attendees.

In a mix of solemn remembrances, countless proclamations of “love always wins,” confetti, bikini bottoms, military and police uniforms, showboating motorcyclists, female impersonators in sky-high heels and Jell-O shot fundraisers, the LGBT community used the Stonewall Parade and Festival on Saturday to respond to the tragedy in Orlando.

There were no resignations, no fireworks and very little drama at the recent Pride South Florida board meeting on July 22, 2014. That follows the recent resignations of four board members this year.

This year Wilton Manor's Pride may be one for the books, literally, as the festival attempts to organize the “longest line of dancing drag queens” where an anticipated 150 queens will march in all their glory to set a Guinness Book world record.  

It was a big night for a big event: the “Wilton Manors Stonewall Pride Parade & Festival” June 16 held up and down the Wilton Drive corridor.

Organizers of the Wilton Manors Stonewall Parade & Festival estimate that the event will cost $250,000, but say they will raise what’s needed.
