Here are some other pride events to cover our bases.įor the Artsy: Opening reception for photographer I-Dea’s The Goddess Within Gay Pride 1994 exhibition. Adore Delano, Ashanti, and many other talent will be performing in the rally. It will be hosted by the fantastic actor Titus Burgess. So at Pier 26 the kickoff to Pride weekend will begin. The Pride Rally tonight will no doubt be an extension of the celebrations from today’s ruling. Like Katy Perry says, “After a hurricane comes a rainbow.” Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that it is legal for all Americans, no matter their gender or sexual orientation, to marry the people they love.
It feels even more so because this is the first time a NYC landmark was designated it’s significance solely on it’s history to the LGBT community.Īs history goes a few weeks after the riots at Stonewall 500 people gathered in Washington Square Park to show their gay pride and peacefully show their support. This year feels really special as Stonewall was granted landmark status by New York City’s Landmarks Preservation Commission just days ago. I look forward to the parade every year as an official start to my summer festivities. Pride is upon us! This is absolutely one of the best times to be in New York City. 0 Shares Share on Facebook Share on Twitter
