Strength Through Visibility – 20 Years of Pride in Jersey City

June 24 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

In 2021, JC Pride celebrated its twentieth anniversary, but with the changing political climate in the country can we count on celebrations to come? Will the progress Pride has made over the years prove to be too fragile to survive?

Join us at the Jersey City Theater Center for the Jersey City debut of the  documentary “Strength Through Visibility: 20 Years of Pride in Jersey City”. This documentary chronicles Jersey City Pride’s history, it also provides a roadmap for people around the world who want to start Pride events in areas with little to no support. We started by hearing “no” from the city and now Jersey City is one of the most welcoming cities in the world for LGBTQ+ people. A small number of people CAN make a difference. Come see our story and learn how.

“Strength Through Visibility: 20 Years of Pride in Jersey City” is the winner of the 2023 Garden State Film Festival  Homegrown Documentary award.  This special LGBT Pride Month screening will be “Free of Charge” but you must have a ticket to attend the event. You can get your tickets here: http://www.jctcenter.org/  (scroll down to find the event) Seating is limited so get your tickets now.

After Party to follow at Six26 4:00-7:00 PM, 128 Christopher Columbus Dr, Jersey City, NJ
