ALX Pride Mix and Mingle with NOVA Pride

The Torpedo Factory Art Center stays open late until 9 pm to host a special mingle in honor of the start of Capital Pride in the DC/Maryland/Virginia area and the 30th anniversary of the City of Alexandria’s support of Pride Month. Stop by for music in the Grand Hall, drinks and snacks, and open artist studios and projects, including a Pride Selfie Station. Proceeds go to benefit NOVA Pride, Northern Virginia’s fastest growing LGBTQ+ organization, with a mission to educate, advocate, and celebrate in service to the LGBTQ+ Community in the area. Special thanks to partner group Alexandria Restaurant Partners for providing additional in-kind support for this event.

Special Opening Reception for Celebration, a photo exhibition of Pride celebrations and marches throughout the years, including rare images from the first New York City Pride March in 1970.
