everyoneisgay: ALL AGES PRIDE PARTY | NYC | JUNE 24 Performances by Julia Weldon, Be Steadwell, and the Urban Word NYC Youth Slam Team, MC’d by Kristin Russo & Gabby Rivera, and hosted at Housing Works Bookstore Cafe! Founded in 2012, the Everyone Is Gay & Autostraddle All Ages Pride Party is a space dedicated to LGBTQ young people, their families, allies, and friends. We work to prioritize collaborative, community-based engagement and to center queer and trans performers. The event began as a response to the increasing number of 21+, alcohol-focused, corporate-driven events at many Pride celebrations across the country, and is believed to be the first Pride event in NYC that made a commitment to centering LGBTQ young people. This annual event is hosted on the Saturday of NYC Pride and is supported by grassroots organizations and artists committed to the liberation and radical empowerment of LGBTQ youth. It’s free, open to all, and our favorite event of the whole dang year.Details here: housingworks.org/events/detail/5th-annual-all-ages-pride-party/ THIS JUST IN:The All-Ages Pride Party will be streaming on Everyone Is Gay’s Facebook Live, so even if you live far, far from NYC, you can join in the celebrations!!! -- source link
