Houston Pagan Pride began
in 1998 as part of what was then a small grassroots movement in the United
States to promote religious tolerance and understanding. It was
powered by individuals linked together via the Internet. This movement
has now gone global through the
Pagan Pride
Project which officially incorporated as a non-profit organization in 1997. The ultimate goal of Houston
Pagan Pride is to enlighten others and eliminate religious prejudice &
discrimination not just for Pagans but for people of all religions. We
work towards this goal through a celebration where diversity is
embraced in a hospitable and entertaining atmosphere. During this
event we collect funds and material goods for a charity and present to
the public a variety of Pagan and Pagan friendly artisans and
entertainers who share our vision of a world where religious prejudice
is a thing of the past.

Now Is The Time....
If you have had an
issue at previous events, now is the time to bring it to our attention so we can make
sure that actions are taken to prevent it from happening this year
if possible. If you think you have ideas to help make the event
better, now is the time to jump onto our event mailing list by
clicking that Yahoo groups join button over there to the left. We grow
and improve through the help and ideas of our volunteers. If you want
something a bit different out of your Pagan Pride Day experience, the
best way to move towards it is to jump into the planning committee and
help make it happen! Now is also a great time to jump on the list if
you wish to vend or perform for the event. You'll get the
first calls for reservations and talent scouting as they happen!
