The town of Hamden hosted their very first Pride event at the town Center Park on Saturday.
Vendors came out, the local theater company performed and many spoke about the importance of the day.
"We are an accepting town. We're very diverse, we have racially diversity, socio-economic diversity, we have gender equality diversity. We're a diverse town and it's great to see ourselves represented here," Hamden Councilwoman Jody Clouse said.
Organizers hope to build on this year's success.
