About Us

Heritage of Pride, Inc. (NYC Pride) traces its roots to the organizers of the first Christopher Street Liberation Day, staged in June 1970 to commemorate the Stonewall Riots. Today, Heritage of Pride produces NYC Pride, the iconic roster of events that inspire, educate, commemorate, and celebrate the LGBT and ally community. The 2015 roster included:

• The Rally
• The March
• PrideFest
• Teaze
• Dance on the Pier
• Pride Luminaries Brunch
• Family Movie Night
• VIP Rooftop Party

While still 4 years away, plans are already underway for Stonewall 50, the 50th anniversary of the 1969 riots that ignited the modern LGBT liberation movement. Stonewall 50 is expected to break records, with more events and attendees than ever before.

Heritage of Pride's Board of Directors, who are elected by a volunteer membership body, are responsible for fulfilling the organization's annual program plan.
