can&#8217;t believe Pride month is almost over. \u00a0Pre-pandemic, this month was filled with fun events celebrating the LGTBQ+ community. \u00a0Companies hosted happy hours at the bars in Boystown, Proud to Run was a 5K\/10K race that was followed by very boozy brunches in the nearby restaurants, and of course, the parade. \u00a0This weekend is when the parade would flamboyantly march through the packed streets of Boystown, Lakeview and Uptown.<\/p>\n<p>Celebrations have been more subdued as Chicago muddles its way through re-opening. \u00a0The parade has been pushed to October, but Chicago and its residents are still showing their support.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Buckingham Fountain Pride, Chicago 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I went to the Buckingham Fountain at 10:00 pm on a Saturday night to take photographs. \u00a0I couldn&#8217;t tell you why I was so adamant on capturing it at night. \u00a0I&#8217;m rarely downtown these days and almost never at night so it was a very happy surprise to see the buildings dressed in their Pride colors.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1124\"
