Stories That Built Us

  • Volusia Pride History

    Volusia Pride was built moment by moment - through conversations, events, advocacy, and the collective care of a community determined to create spaces of belonging. This Day in Our Shared History is a timeline that traces those moments across the years. This history highlights key milestones, meaningful events, and pivotal turning points that have shaped who we are and how we show up for our community.

  • Volusia County Oral Histories

    Volusia Pride has partnered with the West Volusia Historical Society to create a series of oral histories in celebration of Pride Month. Each video explores the life and experiences of one member of the LGBTQ+ West Volusia community.

  • History of Drag

    Drag is more than performance. It is a cultural tradition with deep roots in theater, art, storytelling, and community. For centuries, people across cultures have used costume, character, and gender expression as tools for creativity, entertainment, social commentary, and self-discovery.
