Aging Rainbow Coalition of East TN

We’re looking for volunteers to help bring our sixth annual SoKno Pride to life on June 20, 2026 on Sevier Avenue in South Knoxville.

We need folks who can help with vendor set up, stage support, keeping things running smoothly throughout the day, connecting with attendees, and helping us take care of the space. And honestly, if you have a skill we haven’t even named yet, we probably need you too.

If you can’t be there on the 20th, we also need help setting up on June 19 and cleaning up on June 21.

Volunteer applications are open now and we would love to have you in this with us 🌈✨

Our Health & Happiness gathering is this Wednesday, April 15 from 2-4p at TVUUC and virtually! Apparently Facebook doesn’t know TVUUC’s address. It is in fact 2931 Kingston Pike, not whatever the tagged location says.

It was truly an amazing event and we are incredibly thankful for all the vendors, volunteers, and community who made the day so special!

We are still feeling the love from the Aging with Pride Resource Expo 💜

From the conversations to the connections, it was incredible to see so many people come together in support of LGBTQ+ older adults and our community. The energy, kindness, and sense of belonging in that space truly meant so much.

We know there were so many special moments captured throughout the day, and we would love to see them!

If you took photos, please share them and tag us so we can celebrate and reflect on this amazing day together.

Thank you for showing up and being part of something so meaningful.
