Gothic Pride Seattle – 2023 Dark Delights Spring Bazaar & Bakesale

Today we travelled up to Seattle from Tacoma for the second annual Dark Delights Spring Bazaar & Bake Sale by Gothic Pride Seattle.

“Gothic Pride Seattle is an all-inclusive nonprofit 501(c)3 organization working to help strengthen and empower our diverse community through advocacy, education, social, and fundraising events. We strive to help make safe and lasting connections and alliances within and throughout the Seattle Gothic community, as well as in the greater Seattle area.

Through hosting and participating in local gothic events, we help strengthen and unify our community and promote connections. We create visibility through our float in Seattle’s yearly Pride Parade, and invite all community members to join us and celebrate your gothic pride!

All the profits from the sales of the t-shirts, hoodies and other merchandise goes to the Community Crypt fund which is distributed to local goth businesses in need.”

These were some of the partipating vendors:

I enjoyed browsing and seeing everyone’s talents. I will definitely visit their online stores to acquire more wares. I found a couple beautiful prints by Mx Morgan Illustrations – the one I was able to purchase today was this lovely dark moon against a blood red sky. They had a collection of really dark and adorable stickers as well. I’ll be returning to their shop to try to purchase the other print I was eyeing.
