Founded in 2019, the Renton LGBTQIA+ Community is building a strong inclusive sense of belonging, empowering members to promote positive change in our communities, combating prejudice and discrimination, and providing support for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, and similarly-identified people.
If you’d like to get involved, send us an email at rentonlgbt@gmail.com, subscribe to our email list, or join our Facebook group.
The time is upon us, time to take flight-
This weekend, Dragon’s Landing takes over Downtown Renton with live jousting & fencing, artisan vendors, hands-on activities, and the Awakening Ceremony all under the watchful eye of our very own Erasmus.
Come see us at S 3rd St & Wells Ave! Don’t forget to check out the live map of everything the event has to offer on the event website!
Bring your friends. Bring your love. Bring your sense of adventure. 🐉🔥

March is full of LGBTQ+ community events in and around Renton! From youth groups and support spaces to crafting nights, story hour, and a special author visit, take a look at what’s coming up.
On February 25th, 6pm, at the Renton Library we will be holding a facilitated, community-centered conversation focused on dialogue, questions, and relationship-building between LGBTQIA+ community members and local law enforcement. This is a space to ask questions or raise concerns about public safety and emerging issues. We kindly ask all attendees to engage respectfully and thoughtfully as we address these sensitive topics together.
Our Cozy Crafting event on February 11th was cancelled due to a heating issue at the venue. The event will now take place on Wednesday, February 18th, at the same time and location. Hope to see you there!

Join us for Pride in the Park on Saturday, August 2nd from 11am to 3pm at Cedar River Tail Park! This is a casual, low-key gathering for LGBTQIA+ folks, families, and allies to relax, connect, and enjoy the outdoors together. No stage, no vendors—just a peaceful space to be in community.
Bring your own lunch or picnic blanket and settle in! We’ll have some snacks and drinks available to share, and plenty of shade by the river. Whether you stay for a few minutes or the whole afternoon, we’d love to see you there.
Register and attend with the event details below. More events will be announced in a couple weeks with our July newsletter.
