When the community works together, the community works A vibrant community depends on the participation of its members. The more diverse their backgrounds, experience and skills, the more unique their contributions to the community can be. Bank of America supports The Pride Center of the Capital Region for celebrating individuality while supporting the common goals that bring progress to everyone. Visit us at bankofamerica.com/local Life’s better when we’re connected® ©2017 Bank of America Corporation | SPN-128-AD | ARMWTPSR WELCOME TO PRIDE 2017! The LGBTQ community is a complex tapestry of diversity. Our annual celebration of PRIDE is just one way we come together and hold our heads high and celebrate our lives. Every year at this time we have an opportunity to recommit to the fight and the conviction that we will never go back into the shadows, we will not be silenced, we refuse to be marginalized, we will stand up for ourselves and one another. We will celebrate and embrace our unique differences and demand equality for every lesbian, every gay person, every bi-sexual person, every transgender, gender non-conforming individual, and every color of the rainbow regardless of age or ethnicity. Now and always. I have been given an amazing opportunity to represent and serve as the Executive Director of the oldest continuously operating LGBTQ center in the country. I cherish this gift. As a young person who grew up in the 70’s struggling with my sexuality, a supportive, safe and nurturing community center to turn to would have made my youth a lot less lonely and frightening. Anyone who believes that the Pride Center is no longer relevant or important fails to understand that so many people of all ages are out there today struggling mightily. Whether or not we remain a trusted lifeline is up to you. I welcome all of you to PRIDE 2017. On behalf of the Pride Center staff and the Board of Directors; Thank You for your support and your involvement. ​ Martha Harvey Executive Director/CEO WWW.CAPITALPRIDECENTER.ORG • 3 It takes no compromise to give people their rights.

STATE OF NEW YORK EXECUTIVE CHAMBER ALBANY 12224 ANDREW M. CUOMO GOVERNOR June 2017 Dear Friends: It is a pleasure to send greetings to members of our state's LGBTQ community, along with families, friends, and neighbors gathered for celebrations of Pride. New York State has long been a champion of social, civil, and human rights. From our storied history in the fightfor the abolition of slavery and our important role in the Underground Railroad, to the start of the women's rights movement at Seneca Falls, to the rebels at Stonewall who birthed the modernLGBTQ rights movement, we findinspiration and strength in the leadership our state has played in furthering freedom. In New York, we are proud to embrace our differences. Pride events bring New Yorkers together in a spirit of unity to celebrate the culture and contributions ofLGBTQ communities across our state. Thanks to a strong network of activism, people of all ages and backgrounds who participate in Pride contribute to raising awareness of issues that continue to affectLGBTQ communities nationwide. Here in New York, we are proud of the progress we have made in achieving equality for our LGBTQ neighbors. We have recognized that love is love by passing marriage equality. We have declared zero tolerance for bias-motivated harassment and violence by establishing the Statewide Hate Crimes Task Force. We have worked to protect transgender New Yorkers with an Executive Order prohibiting discrimination based on gender identity. We have even invited LGBTQ people fromaround the world to come enjoy our great state through the I LOVE NY LGBT tourism initiative. The Empire State will always be a safe and welcoming place forall people. Our voices matter here, our rights are protected, and our differencescelebrated. Today, we stand with a reaffirmed commitment to furtherNew York's progressive values as we celebrate LGBTQ Pride. With warmest regards and best wishes for a wonderful Pride celebration.

Our 2018 festival promises to be the biggest edition yet, featuring an ex- panded street festival, more community events, and two days of mainstage programming and entertainment. From August 19 to 26, the LGBTQ2+ community and our allies will celebrate one another, taking the opportunity to connect with people and organizations across the region that contribute to our vibrant queer community. This year, we are recognizing the power of community. Our theme is paying tribute to the many people and groups that come together locally, nationally, and globally to advocate for LGBTQ2+ rights, and recognizing that progress is made through people uniting to create strong communities that push for change. So, this week, I invite you to join us in celebrating our theme, CommUNITY. Organizing a festival of this size wouldn’t be possible without a team of dedicated festival volunteers, staff, oper- ations team members, youth committee members, and board members who are hard at work all week and all year long. Thank you for all for all that you do. Thank you also to our many public, private and community partners who support the festival and enable us to grow each year.
