From the beginning, we have been passionate about fulfilling one of the most commonly expressed needs in our community. Through a variety of events in partnership with local businesses, we have grown to hold a wide variety of safe, sober, all-ages spaces and events for the local LGBTQIA+ community.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

At Heart of Winona, we are dedicated to making our website and all digital platforms accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities.

What Accessibility Means to Us

    Providing alternative text for all visual content


    Using color contrasts that meet accessibility standards


    Minimizing the use of elements that may cause seizures or physical reactions


    Ensuring compatibility with screen readers and keyboard navigation


    Providing accessible multimedia content
