Central is a longtime supporter of Rhode Island PrideFest, which took place on Saturday, June 15. Thanks so much to the volunteers who staffed our booth: Paul Armstrong, Eric Bennett, Catherine D’Avanzato, Michael Fournier, Beverly Haviland, Elizabeth Howlett, Jaime Lavoie, Morgan Lavoie, and Temi Sonubi. PrideFest, which celebrates the LGBTQIA+ community, is one of the oldest celebrations of its kind in the country. This year, the event welcomed more than 125,000 attendees and 250 nonprofit organizations, businesses, and food vendors.
