Quiet Riot is a sensory-friendly Pride celebration centering joy, community, and visibility in a calm, welcoming environment. Designed for neurodivergent, disabled, and sensory-sensitive q***r folks as well as anyone seeking a gentler celebration.

Quiet Riot honors the loudness of q***r identity through quiet, intentional spaces.This is not a toned-down Pride- it’s a reframed one. Our goal is to elevate q***r voices and identities in ways that respect varied sensory needs, emotional capacities, and energy levels.

The day’s schedule includes wellness sessions, educational workshops, accessible performances, crafts, and a resource fair. All activities and the general space design are geared toward sensory needs, neurodivergence, and accessibility.
