Celebrate Pride with Alums!
Cheer on this year's LA Pride parade with fellow alums. A Wellesley sibling's sister has generously offered her apartment as a meeting place (and free bathroom) for the parade. Meet around 10 AM at 1229 N. Flores St., West Hollywood, CA 90069 (between Santa Monica and Fountain). We will convene on the back patio. From there we can walk down to Santa Monica to cheer on the parade, which is scheduled to kick-off around 11 AM (https://lapride.org/event/2019-la-pride-parade/). If you come later than 11 AM, just meet us down by the corner of N. Flores and Santa Monica. We will be sporting Wellesley pride pins!
The parade is scheduled to end at 2 PM. After, some alum may choose to walk to the neighboring restaurants, bars, or clubs. The official, ticketed LA Pride festival is also scheduled to go from noon until 1 AM (https://lapride.org/event/2019-la-pride-festival/).
Give yourself plenty of time to get there as there will be road closures. Consider public transportation as the parking in West Hollywood can be challenging. BYOB and bring water + sun protection. Post if you have any questions.
