SD Pride Recognizes Songwriter Sanctuary San Diego with Larry T. Baza Arts and Culture Award

Exciting news, friends! Songwriter Sanctuary San Diego is the proud recipient of San Diego Pride's Larry T. Baza Arts and Culture Award! We will be accepting the award at the Spirit of Stonewall Rally on Friday, July 17 alongside other honorees. This year's rally will take place at 535 Robinson Ave (across from the Brass Rail) at 6pm. All are welcome and it's free to attend!

We'll also have a small marching contingent in the following day's Pride Parade alongside our venue partner Normal Heights United. If you're an artist or supporter who'd like to participate, please reach out for more details!

While we're on the topic of Pride festivities, please save the date for our annual Pride concert on Friday, June 26. The event will be presented with Raspberry Management and will feature The Dimes, Saint Misty, Daddy with Pre-show Pantry Jam busking by Julian Forest. We also hope to provide ASL for the sanctuary portion of the show - follow us on Instagram for updates!

Our 2026 Pride collage is a tribute to our alumni and scheduled LGBTQ+ performers, as well as many ally artists and partners who support our work. Thanks to those who consented to be included before the given deadline...apologies if we missed anyone, but it was a quick turnaround! Our hearts are full to receive so much love from everyone in our greater community.
