Pride celebrations in the Meatpacking District showcase a harmonious blend of art, fashion, food, and celebration. The district buzzes with captivating exhibitions, stylish designs, and enticing cocktail specials. In the spirit of inclusivity, numerous promotions this month will support LGBTQ+ charities, fostering a sense of community while embracing the power of pride and giving back. See below for District-wide Pride 2023 happenings:

The Meatpacking Business District and activist Tim Hayes present "A District Defined: Streets, Sex, and Survival," a photography exhibition showcasing unseen works by eight artists. Opening on June 23 at 401 West 14th Street, the exhibition explores the vibrant queer nightlife of the late 80s and 90s in the Meatpacking District. Some works will be available for sale, with proceeds supporting the American LGBTQ+ Museum, dedicated to preserving and sharing the diverse lives and stories of the LGBTQ+ community.


The Whitney Museum is offering a full line-up of Pride events. Join in on the fun at their Whitney Pride Celebration Featuring Chitra Ganesh’s Queer Power Coloring Book and Bob’s Dance Shop on June 10.
