Marigold Parade is an annual procession and celebration held in Albuquerque, NM, dedicated to preserving and honoring the vibrant culture of the community. With a focus on raising awareness about the devastating impact of gun violence, substance abuse, and targeted policies against LGBTQ youth and youth of color, the parade aims to create a space for collective grieving and reflection. Through their commitment to supporting and holding systems accountable for the safety of young people, Marigold Parade encourages community engagement and fosters a sense of collective care.
As the 27th Annual Marigold Parade approaches, the committee invites individuals to join in this meaningful tradition and make a difference by donating or getting involved. By rallying together, the community can help keep this important cultural event alive and continue to uplift the proverbial notion that it takes a village to support and protect our youth.
