Se7enBites, located in the heart of Orlando's Milk District, will host a bold, community celebration on September 15.
In response to the recent decision to paint over Orlando’s iconic rainbow crosswalks, Trina Gregory, owner of the beloved Se7en Bites restaurant located at 617 N Primrose Dr Orlando 32803, is taking a stand for love, diversity, and artistic expression.
Gregory is opening 49 of her private parking spaces to local artists who want to transform them into vibrant works of art, turning the controversy into a powerful community-driven celebration.
The event, “Parking Spaces for Pride,” will take place on September 15, 2025, at Se7en Bites in Orlando and will feature:
Live Art Installations
Local artists will paint the parking spaces, turning them into permanent murals.
Food Trucks & Local Vendors
A showcase of Orlando’s best bites, drinks, and goods.
Live Music & Entertainment
Performances from local bands and DJs celebrating unity and inclusivity.
Community Gathering
A safe space for LGBTQ+ individuals, allies, and neighbors to come together.
“Art has always been a form of resistance and healing,” said Trina Gregory, owner of Se7en Bites. “If our state leaders want to erase symbols of pride and acceptance, then we’ll create even more of them. This isn’t just about paint — it’s about community, visibility, and love.”
This family-friendly celebration aims to uplift Orlando’s LGBTQ+ community and showcase local talent while sending a powerful message of resilience. The event will become an annual tradition, giving artists and residents an ongoing opportunity to come together, create, and celebrate diversity.
In response to the overwhelming demand to be able to donate or provide assistance for this event, Trina has created a source via Spotfund:
Here, everyone has teh opportunity to donate, with donations supporting event essentials like supplies, volunteer care, and logistics.
This vibrant event aims to bring people together, offering a safe space for artistic expression and connection.
