A Pride Month-themed event Saturday, organized by Celeste Belmont of TcKobold, at Commune à Tea in downtown Laconia, featured bracelet and keychain making, coloring, and a prize raffle. Attendees enjoyed food and drinks served by Commune à Tea. "There's not a lot of Pride events in the Lakes Region, but there's a lot of people [here] in the LGBTQ+ community," Belmont said. "This store is a really welcoming place, and I wanted to keep it small and intimate. Everybody deserves to feel welcome in their own community."
