Boise Pride 2024 has started, bringing all walks of life, to the festival.
“Pride is huge,” says Erica Rothchild.
Food vendors, organizations, and groups filled the festival, connecting with members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
Leslie Miller is member of Boise Unitarian Universal Fellowship, she says her church shows their support each year, by tabling the event. “We want to make sure that they know we’re here that we support them 100 percent and we’d love if they come visit us but we just want them to be aware that we’re here we love them we support them and they’re okay with us,” Miller said.
