Lincoln Center Celebrates Pride

Lincoln Center has announced upcoming events which will celebrate Pride this June at Restart Stages, its newly launched outdoor performing arts center championing the emerging arts revival in New York City. Music, theater performances, newly commissioned works, and a rainbow light installation at Lincoln Center’s iconic fountain will honor the histories, struggles, and contributions of the LGBTQIA+ communities and celebrate the full spectrum of queer identity.

Lincoln Center is partnering with the National Queer Theater and will bring two new theater works to Restart Stages as part of the Criminal Queerness Festival, which supports the development and production of new works by international and immigrant theater-makers experiencing censorship or criminalization around the world. Info about these performances can be found here.

Lincoln Center will once again light its iconic fountain with a rainbow design and fly the Pride flag starting in June. Pride celebration performances will take place from June 21 through June 26.

In addition to artistic programming throughout June, Lincoln Center will be facilitating opportunities for its staff to participate in reflection and celebration throughout the month with guided conversations, gatherings, and support groups.

All seating for Restart Stages is located on accessible routes and can be removed to make space for mobility devices.
