History and Significance

Harlem has long been a refuge for the gay community, dating back to the masquerade parties and drag balls of the 1920s and 1930s. Over the past decade, the neighborhood has become even more popular due to its more affordable housing and proximity to Midtown's theatre district.
The Harlem Pride celebration began in 2010 and has grown significantly over the past years to become one of the most important Pride celebrations in New York City's five boroughs.
