The mission of Twin Cities Pride is to empower every LGBTQ+ person to live as their true self. We envision a future where all LGBTQ+ people are valued and celebrated for who they are.
Welcome to Rainbow Wardrobe, a free gender affirming wardrobe!
Rainbow Wardrobe is a part of Twin Cities Pride's year-round programming division, Rainbow Circle. Our wardrobe is made up of new and gently used donations from community members. Access to gender affirming resources is LIFE CHANGING.
The Rainbow Wardrobe is open year-round, Tuesday-Friday from 10:00 am - 3:00pm and is available to shop by appointment!
For more information about the wardrobe, donating, scheduling an appointment to shop, or requests for specific clothing pieces - email us at rainbowcircle@tcpride.org!
With the MN Legislature’s recent passing of the Trans Refuge Act, and anti-LGBTQ+ legislation on the rise in other parts of the country, many anxious, out-of-state families are hoping to relocate to Minnesota. TC Pride and many other LGBTQ+ non-profit agencies have already received dozens of calls from families looking for assistance—whether it be financial aid, health care referrals, or employment information.
Funds from our You Belong initiative will help with everything from relocation expenses, educational programming, and collecting the data and resources needed to streamline the relocation process.
We are so pleased to announce our partnership with artist Rae Senarighi for our beautiful You Belong design.
We’ll be featuring Rae’s design on future merchandise, all proceeds benefitting the You Belong campaign.
One of reasons we can keep the festival free and open to everyone is our incredible community of volunteers. Every year, hundreds of individuals step up and donate their time and talents. From our Festival, to the 5K Rainbow Run, and the March & Parade, we need community members willing to lend a hand.
From helping line up the parade floats, assisting with festival set-up or take-down, working with the entertainers and vendors, or assisting other festival goers--there really is a little something for everyone.
PLUS: All volunteers will receive a T-shirt, swag bag, as well as a free meal!
If you are interested in volunteering but have some questions, please send us an email: volunteer@tcpride.org
If you have a few extra hours and are looking to help out the community you love, please considering volunteering with us today!

When I accepted the position of Executive Director in October, I focused on 3 goals: 1) Make sure everyone in our community feels welcome at all of our events, 2) Create more events by offering year-round programing; and 3) Work with other organizations in the community to create an amazing network of resources. We're running at full speed here at TC Pride trying to achieve those goals. Things are changing, and I can't wait to see you all soon.
Dress in rainbow and join in the fun! Join the run on Hennepin Ave, or run wherever you are. This will be a chipped run! All in-person runners 21+ will get a FREE BEER at the end of the run at the Sculpture Garden Beer Tent.
