About

Salem Capital Pride is a queer-led nonprofit founded in 2004 that promotes LGBTQ+ education, understanding, and community across Salem and the Mid-Willamette Valley. Year-round it runs free community programs like hikes, crafts, board games, tabletop RPGs, and book clubs, plus signature events including Pride in the Park, the Pride Parade & Block Party, Queer Prom, and a camping trip.
