Planting Pride 2022

June 11, 2022 | 10:00 am4:00 pm

Planting Fields Foundation is thrilled to host our first-ever PLANTING PRIDE FESTIVAL! Celebrating the LGBTQ+ community and its past, present, and future at Planting Fields, we’re excited to gather on Saturday, June 11 at our beautiful 409-acre estate to enjoy a packed day of food, learning, and fun. Local vendors, artists, non-profit organizations, and performers will be on hand to demonstrate their support for the queer community on Long Island. Coe Hall will be open for self-guided tours of our spring exhibition Fashioning Desire: The Art of Gerda Wegener and two panel discussions, “Finding and Sharing a Queer History” and “Creating Queer Community and Resource Building”. Come learn about queer history, art, and local resources, take a yoga class, enjoy a drag performance, and much more. There will be family fun for all! FREE registration includes access to all festival areas and activities, including seats for one or both of the day’s panels (while they last).

And don’t miss our GAY IN THE GILDED AGE PARTY the night before, on Friday, June 10! It’s sure to be a legendary evening of music, dancing, and community as Planting Fields welcomes the region’s LGBTQ+ community to historic Coe Hall for a night of gilded glamor. It’s giving decadence, darling!

Planting Pride is made possible by generous funding from the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation.
