Drag Shows

Rise Bar

Every Sunday at 10:30pm, Rise Bar becomes the place to be—hosted by the legendary Marti Gould Cummings and Chicky Gorgina, with DJ Nesto keeping the energy infectious. It's the kind of weekly ritual that builds a real crew: the same faces, the same energy, the same commitment to having an absolutely ridiculous good time. If you're looking for a Sunday night that actually feels worth staying up for, this is it.

Community Focused

LGBT Network Queens LGBT Center

A Monday morning gathering for LGBTQ+ folks 50 and up who want to connect over shared stories and good conversation. This month's focus: LGBTQ songwriters — listen together, discuss what moves you, and celebrate the voices in our community. Runs 11am–1pm; bring refreshments to share if you'd like.

Wellness Programs

Red Eye NY

An hour of clothing-optional Vinyasa Flow with instructor John at Red Eye NY's intimate studio space. A judgment-free, welcoming queer community setting to move, breathe, and connect with your body — the perfect grounding practice to reset before the week (or weekend) takes over. $20 per class, or grab a 5-class pass for $75 or 10-class pass for $125, cash at the door.

Mental Health Services

Brooklyn Community Pride Center

A free-form peer support group for adults 18+ who identify as LGBTQ+, meeting on Zoom to talk through the demands of daily life with others who get it. BCPC staff lead the session and bring educational resources along the way. Registration in advance is required, and it's not intensive therapy, but staff can connect you with individual support if you need more.

Community Focused

Brooklyn Community Pride Center

A monthly evening where queer folks from different backgrounds share culture through snacks, games like Kahoot, and conversation—tackling misconceptions about each other's ethnicity, nationality, and heritage through play and connection. Sensory-friendly space with pillows, discussion prompts, and a relaxed vibe to destress, read, or work on a side project. Virtual options available for accessibility.

Mental Health Services

Brooklyn Community Pride Center

Led by trained facilitators, this weekly gathering at the Brooklyn Community Pride Center is about real conversation — no judgment, just people who get it. Whether you're navigating identity, relationships, work stress, or just need to be around community, this is the place.
