📣 Hartlepool Pop-up Pride needs your help! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Following calls from the local community, Curious Arts is on a mission to make a Pride event happen in Hartlepool this year, and we need your help!
With your support, we can give Hartlepool a fantastic free, high-quality event, celebrating the Tees Valley’s LGBTQIA+ community with live performances, workshops, markets and more…
Join us in bringing Pride to Hartlepool! As we aim to celebrate diversity and inclusion and improve wellbeing.
Not everyone fully embraced the idea of a Pride event in Hartlepool when we first started conversations, but we believe that with the rising hate crimes nationally and shocking stats of loneliness of LGBTQIA+ people in the region, it is important to try to encourage more understanding and make sure everyone feels seen and included.
“It’s my home town and I would love to see more LGBTQIA+ representation. It's what Hartlepool needs” - Pride in Hartlepool survey response
Please support Curious Arts, and the Hartlepool Pride Planning Group to give crucial visibility and understanding of our community through a Hartlepool Pride event in 2026. Please join us, support us, give what you can and spread the word.
All donations received go towards the coordination and delivery of Hartlepool Pride, purchasing supplies, arts materials, artist fees, transport, marketing and appropriate access support.
