Springout is back for 2009!
Commencing in 1998, Canberra's annual SpringOut Festival has now been in operation for nine years. SpringOut is promoted and coordinated by the Canberra Pride Group - a not for profit and community-based organisation which has formed out of recent changes in the ACT queer community landscape.
SpringOut is a month long festival that celebrates the pride, joy, dignity and identity of Canberra's gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer communities.
The Festival aims to showcase and support the talents and creativity of Canberra's GLBTI community and provide a focus for GLBTI community events and participation. It also provides a platform for local GLBTI people to celebrate their identity and make contact with other GLBTI people and their friends and supporters in Canberra. SpringOut is an inclusive and positive contribution to Canberra?s sense of community and its celebration of diversity.
