Come celebrate Pride with us! Stop by the DCDC booth at Congressional Cemetery's Gays and Graves on Saturday, June 21st, from 11 am to 4 pm.

Gays & Graves: A Big Gay Festival is a joyful gathering that honors LGBTQ+ history, creativity, and community spirit—all in one vibrant day of fun, reflection, and Pride.

Wander through a lively outdoor market showcasing LGBTQ+ artists, makers, and small businesses offering handmade goods, art, tasty treats, and more. Enjoy an inclusive, welcoming atmosphere filled with color, community, and connection.

Throughout the day, our historic chapel will host engaging programming centered on LGBTQ+ history.
We are proud to be the final resting place of many LGBTQ+ pioneers and activists—offering a unique opportunity to celebrate Pride while honoring those who came before us.

Whether you’re here to shop, learn or reflect, Gays & Graves is a celebration.
