We are thrilled to announce that we have chosen the design to represent the "Woven Together" Ptbo-Nogo Pride 2026 theme. Close to a dozen designs were submitted and we greatly appreciate all those that took the time to participate and their effort to create designs for our consideration.![]()

The winning design was submitted by Emma Moore (she/they) who is a local artist working and living in Nogojiwanong-Peterborough!![]()

Emma's Inspiration: "My woven together Pride piece is in reference to found family and friendship. I was truly inspired when I learned more about the AIDS Quilt memorial community arts project as well as the history behind quilting circles. My piece represents chosen family working together to create a vibrant and safe community. Quilts provide comfort, shelter, and through their symbolism and colourful patches and patterns, have represented poignant moments in many of our lives."![]()
