Our 2022 Artist

Copper Foxes

Our artist this year is Sam (Copper Foxes) who is a panromantic asexual artist raised on Bainbridge Island. They have been designing products since 2017 to sell at local art booths. After graduating from Olympic College in 2019, they worked at a local print shop for nearly two years. At the same time, they worked on developing their art and design business on the side. Now they do freelance illustration, merchandise design, and graphic design full-time. They also run an Etsy shop and a Patreon with their designs and products. Stop by Sam’s booth this Saturday at Pride. @copperfoxes

Thank You To Our 2021 Sponsors

We couldn’t produce the Kitsap Pride festival and operate year round without the support of our generous sponsors.

In 2021 we welcomed the support of The Arc of the Peninsulas as the presenting sponsor of the Coming Out Concert.

Our title sponsors included Hound and Bottle who brought the Kitsap Humane Society to the festival, and UnitedHealthcare.

Event day sponsors included Northwest Washington Family Medicine Residency, Thompson Insurance Agency, Silverdale Chamber Of Commerce, Living Room Realty, and Kitsap Mental Health Services.

In-kind sponsors included Eleven Winery, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, and Papé Machinery.

We also thank the Suquamish Tribe for their year round support and to Puget Sound Energy for their organizational support.
