The Galena Pride Picnic is committed to encouraging LGBTQ+ tourism through building alliances within the City of Galena and surrounding areas, as well as advocating cooperation and support from all who value diversity and inclusion.

The City of Galena continues to evolve as a safe space for all LGBTQ+ people.

The event will be organized and run solely by volunteers and the Galena Public Library District, a local non-profit organization.
