What is Disability Pride Month?

The Ballarat Working Together Group invites you to celebrate Disability Pride Month in Ballarat! Disability Pride Month happens every year in July to promote awareness, celebrate people with disability and encourages self-acceptance and embracing all disabilities.

This event will bring together a range of local guest speakers to reflect and share their experiences via a panel discussion!

To celebrate Disability Pride Month, the Framing My Story Exhibition will be on display at Sebastopol Library from 5 July - 18 August 2025.
