Pride Bloomington's LGBTQ Film Festival 2014PRIDE programs a variety of live performance, lecture, public participation events and films that express a wide range of viewpoints and feature many different personality types and situations, advocating community-wide attitudes of awareness, acceptance and appreciation of diversity. The goal of the festival is to educate and strengthen the local community and celebrate artistic talent and achievement.

At its ten-year anniversary, the PRIDE Film Festival announced in January 2013 that it will incorporate into a free-standing nonprofit organization to expand programming and better serve the LGBT community. A volunteer Steering Committee made up of community members, Indiana University students and faculty, artists, film enthusiasts, and others plans the festival, led by two co-directors, Sarah Perfetti and Abby Henkel. The volunteer Board of Directors manages the administrative activities of the emerging nonprofit called Bloomington PRIDE.

Founded in 2003 by two IU Arts Administration graduate students and directed by Danielle McClelland, the Festival was an instant success, embraced by the LGBTQ and general Bloomington communities alike. Strong support from local businesses, the IU GLBT Alumni Association, Visit Bloomington, the Bloomington Arts Commission, and hundreds of residents and visitors make PRIDE an annual event that everyone looks forward to.
