West Hollywood Hosts LA Pride

Kehlani and Tove Lo will headline the 2018 LA Pride Festival, taking place this weekend, from noon to 1 a.m. on Saturday, June 9, and Sunday, June 10, from noon to 11 p.m. Many other performers will take three Festival stages: Park Stage, Plaza Stage, and Boulevard Stage.

On Sunday, Michaela Ivri Mendelsohn will ride down Santa Monica Boulevard as grand marshal of the 2018 LA Pride Parade.  Mendelsohn, CEO of Pollo West Group and Founder of TransCanWork, is a longtime LGBT activist and community leader.

“We are thrilled to have Michaela Mendelsohn, a long-time activist and respected trans woman in business today, as this year’s LA Pride Parade Grand Marshal,” said Estevan Montemayor, CSW Board President. “Michaela has been a strong LGBTQ+ advocate, especially by working to boost the hiring and inclusion of trans people in the workplace.”
