Since 1988, communities around the world have stood together on World AIDS Day to show continued strength and solidarity against HIV/AIDS. We gather for awareness and for understanding of HIV/AIDS, for compassion and love for those we've lost and for those who continue to fight, and for strength as we continue to pursue a world without AIDS and zero new cases.
Please join the community in honoring World AIDS Day at 10 a.m. on Friday, Dec. 1, 2023 at AIDS Garden Chicago. There will be spoken word and performances by the Lakeside Pride Band.
Rain, snow, wind or shine. Open to the public; all are welcome.
Contact info@chicagoparksfoundation.org with any questions. |
