Reel Pride

This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to support Fresno Reel Pride — one of the longest-running LGBTQ+ film festivals in the country and a space where q***r stories, creators, and communities can come together and shine. Every year, your generosity helps us uplift voices that deserve to be seen and heard, and to bring films to Fresno that spark joy, reflection, connection, and pride.

With your support, we can continue building a festival that celebrates authenticity, strengthens community, and ensures LGBTQ+ filmmakers have a platform in the Central Valley. Whether you’re able to give a little or a lot, your contribution helps us keep q***r cinema thriving. Thank you for standing with us, for showing up, and for helping us foster visibility, acceptance, and community. YOU make a difference ❤️

🏳️‍⚧️ Transgender Day of Remembrance 🏳️‍⚧️

Transgender Day of Remembrance on November 20th asks us to pause and honor the trans individuals whose lives were taken by anti-trans violence. It is a day of reflection, mourning, and deep respect — an acknowledgment of the harm so many have faced simply for living as their true selves. Their memories call us to confront injustice with clarity and compassion.

In holding this remembrance, we also reaffirm our commitment to protecting and uplifting the trans community. Let this day inspire us to advocate for safety, dignity, and equity, not just in words but in action. As we remember those we’ve lost, we carry their light forward by working toward a world where every trans person can live freely, authentically, and without fear.

For the trans people in your own life, acknowledge them today, and let them know that they matter. Repost this reel or others that acknowledge trans people’s existence and their struggle. It is through visibility and humanity that we move the needle toward making this world a bit more just and a whole lot more kind. ❤️

Thanks for coming everyone! We had a blast and we hope you did too!

Special thanks to Chapel of the Light, Splash Fresno for providing security, our volunteers, the Sanderson Drag Sisters, & each and every one of you that makes Reel Pride a community ❤️
