Equality Pagosa hosts a "Stand Up Saturday" event from noon until 2PM every week in the public parking lot next to the Ruby Sisson Library.

Everyone is invited to exercise their 1st Amendment rights at these gatherings.

Bring your family, your friends, your other neighbors, your chair, your pet, your favorite sign or borrow one of ours. Let’s make some noise!

It’s Your First Amendment Right,
Use it or Lose it!

Let's make music!

Come and join us for an informal jam session! Bring your voice and/or an instrument (if you play one). Share the songs you know and learn new ones. Everyone is welcome even if you just want to listen, but be ready to have a good time!

Led by local educator and folk musician Dennis Lum.

Join us for an hour of dedicated reading. Socialize after, or not!

How it works: B.Y.O.B. (Bring Your Own Book) or grab something new off the shelf and read alongside other readers! There are no assigned readings. All book genres and formats are welcome.
