Pride
This year, the Center celebrates 25 years serving New York’s Lesbian,
Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community. We are planning Pride
celebrations and events in every borough and beyond to commemorate this
important milestone; and we need your to help make this undertaking a
success. Make the Center your online resource for listings and information about the 2008 Pride Season.

The Center would like to extend a special thank you to Heritage of Pride, organizers of New York City Pride in Manhattan, for electing us as an honorary Grand Marshal in the March. Visit Heritage of Pride online at www.hopinc.org
Garden Party 25

6-10 PM
Hudson River Park Trust, Pier 54,
14th Street and the Westside Highway
Garden Party is NYC’s official kick-off to Pride Week, raising much-needed funds that allow the Center to keep its doors open 365 days a year. Most importantly, the money raised at Garden Party allows the Center to build and support our community through advocacy, culture and health programs, as well as meeting and conference services, and provides a safe and welcoming environment.
Join us at the 25th Garden Party, the only LGBT tasting event in the country benefiting the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center, presented once again by Prudential. This year we celebrate both the 25th anniversary of the Center and the 25th Garden Party with more than 30 restaurants, an open bar and star-powered entertainment including the return of our host Kate Clinton!
