We believe that Dungeons & Dragons brings people together and can serve as a safe space for self-expression. In celebration of Pride Month, Wizards of the Coast is partnering with Ultra Pro and the MTG Pro Shop to release apparel and playmats that celebrate the LGBTQ+ community. All profits of the sales of these pride products benefit Seattle's LGBTQ+ Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
About Pride Month
In the United States, the month of June celebrates the LGBTQ+ community in honor of the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan. These demonstrations represented a turning point for the Gay Liberation Movement in the country. Pride Month is now celebrated globally to honor the brave people who protested for equality in 1969.
This celebration has come to be known as Pride Month, and it encompasses various events ranging from parades to ceremonies. It is a time when millions gather to show support for the LGBTQ+ community, which continues to face inequality.
