A whole week surrounded by LGBTQ families? Ice cream, beach campfires, and conversation? Sounds like the kumbaya many of us need these days.
Grab the kids, nieces and nephews and head over to Provincetown Family Week, a week-long event for queer-parented families that kicks off Saturday, July 28th.
From land & ocean tours to historical walking tours, whale watching to a multi-racial families ice cream social, the events are ongoing all week. Daytime theater camp is a great way to be sure children and adults both enjoy this sweet summer getaway.
