FAQ
Is the Pride Guide printed?
No—our Pride Guide is all-digital, designed for online viewing and sharing across devices.
Is the Pride Guide a one-time weekend placement?
The guide is available beyond Pride weekend as part of Stonewall Columbus’s Pride 365 engagement approach.
When do you need artwork?
Use the deadline listed in the sponsorship packet (and on the artwork specs document). Earlier is always helpful for proofing.
What if we don’t have a designer?
We can offer lightweight guidance (logo + message + link) so you can still be represented well in the guide.
Can our Pride Guide placement link to our website?
Yes—when the guide format supports it, we’ll include clickable links and/or QR codes as appropriate.
