"Without a festival in 2021, we worked hard behind the scenes to get a community center in the works — and we are excited to execute this goal," Knox Pride officials said.

Knox Pride hopes to use the space for outreach, events, connective services, and a food pantry.

The board hopes that the community and outreach center will be a focal point for LGBTQ+ resources, events, group meetings, and more, a press release states.
