• 24th Annual London Pride Parade - Join the Purple Wave by putting on your purple and PRIDE gear and arrive at the Western Fair parking by 11:30 a.m. on July 29, 2018. We will have an artist doing face-painting or tattoos (this is a bit weather dependant) from 11am to 12pm. The parade leaves at 12:30 p.m. and goes along Queens Avenue to Victoria Park.
• The Pride contingent will include members marching under the banners of the Western Queer Caucus, UWOFA, UWOSA, the USC, SOGS,  PMA and other Western organizations.

The caucus links people across faculties, schools, and departments and is intended to help forge community, facilitate academic alliances, promote scholarship, provide a venue for activism, and encourage discussions and practices of diverse forms of queer pedagogy.
