rising tide raises all ships!
When all of us shines, it inspires others to show up louder and more fully themselves. We’re not here to gatekeep – we’re here to build the dock.
Portland’s queer nightlife deserves more than lost flyers and scattered posts. This guide exists to lift the scene, not own it – to highlight the real ones and make sure the work gets seen.
We grow stronger together. We celebrate louder together. We raise the tide – together.
No one here is getting paid. We don’t have sponsors. Pride shouldn’t just be brought to you by a brand — it should be built by the community. This is our way of making that happen.
