New West Pride Street Festival

Join the PSAC BC Mainland Human Rights Committee on Saturday, August 16 from 3 PM to 8 PM for the New West Pride Street Festival!

Everyone is invited to join in for a family-friendly day of music, celebration, shopping, and dining with an array of artists, vendors, and food trucks along Columbia Street in Downtown New Westminster.

The purpose of the New West Pride Society is to empower, celebrate, and promote inclusivity, acceptance, and respect among persons of all sexual orientations and gender identities in New Westminster and surrounding communities. More information about New West Pride can be found here.

Interesting in helping out? We need volunteers from 1 PM to 9 PM on the Saturday. Volunteers are welcome to volunteer for one or more hours as they would like. Volunteer responsibilities at the PSAC booth will include:

• Interacting with members of the public
• Answering basic questions about the federal public service and the work PSAC members perform
• Handing out swag items

If you’d like to volunteer, please reach out to the Mainland Human Rights Committee (PSACBC-HRC-Mainland@psac-afpc.com). In your email, please provide the tie you wish to volunteer along with your full name and contact number.

Can’t volunteer? No problem, please swing by to say hello and pick up some PSAC BC swag. We’ll have colouring sheets, stickers, temporary tattoos and more!

We look forward to seeing you!
