Where Pride Resides
Thank you to our volunteers, marchers, friends and advocates!


PEOPLE CAME FOR THE MARCH
& STAYED FOR THE FESTIVAL.
The 22nd Annual New Paltz Pride March & Festival brought our community together on Sunday, June 7, to celebrate LGBTQ+ visibility, joy, community, and pride.
Walkers, marchers, and floats made their way down Main Street before the celebration continued at Hasbrouck Park with an afternoon of vendors, food, drinks, entertainment, and community connection.
HONORING TWO HUDSON VALLEY LEADERS.
Stephen Hengst & Patrick Decker, founders of Big Gay Hudson Valley, led this year’s march down Main Street as we celebrate their leadership, creativity, and lasting community impact across the Hudson Valley.
Their work has helped expand LGBTQ+ visibility, joy, creativity, and connection throughout the Hudson Valley.

EVERYONE HAS A PLACE AT PRIDE
The New Paltz Pride March and Festival is a joyful celebration of community, visibility, and advocacy. It’s a chance to show up for LGBTQ+ people of all ages, along with the friends, families, allies, and advocates who stand with them.
