Princeton Community Pride Picnic

Celebrate Princeton's LGBTQ+ community with music, art, activities and neighborhood nonprofits at the third annual edition of this family-friendly event. Location: Palmer Square. Rain date: June 4.

Kick off Pride Month with the Princeton community on the green space of Palmer Square as we gather to celebrate inclusivity, tolerance and acceptance at a joyful family-friendly event.  Enjoy live music featuring Sarah Donner and School of Rock Princeton, learn to be a "hoop star" with Angela from Color Me Hoopy, participate in creating a collaborative community art project, take part in a variety of activities and go home with fun giveaways.

Families are welcome to bring a picnic to enjoy on the grass or to purchase a lunch from one of the many food establishments on Palmer Square.
