Youth Pride is an annual carnival-style celebration for LGBTQIA+ youth, their families and allies. This year’s theme, “For All of Us,” aims to empower and educate queer youth with a variety of queer- and gender-affirming resources and activities, including:
A rally with local activists coming together to demand protections for trans and queer youth
Interactive timelines and activations detailing milestones in LGBTQ+ history
Self care and expression resources, such as pronoun pins and a clothing swap
Beauty tutorials, including wig styling, braiding, hair styling, drag makeup, and skin care focused on BIPOC attendees
Workshops on understanding rights and safe advocacy for local trans/non-binary and immigrant populations
Community-building resources to help connect LGBTQ+ youth in NYC
Attendees can also enjoy a variety of exciting carnival activations, live musical performances, complimentary food and snacks, and special guests.
Youth Pride closes with the return of Dance on the Pier, featuring DJ Nikki Jax and a dance floor open to all ages and identities.
