Pride Ethos

Ethos: The characteristic spirit of a culture, era, or community as manifested in its beliefs and aspirations.

Pride Ethos is a manifestation of the radical spirit of queer performance. Over two unforgettable nights, the Everson Museum of Art becomes a living, breathing exhibit — a celebration of identity, creativity, and community, staged throughout the museum’s striking modern architecture and alongside its celebrated collection of American art.

Come breathe collective life into this immersive, two-night experience. Each evening features a different lineup of LGBTQ+ performers from across Upstate New York — offering intimate and electrifying expressions of pride through drag, burlesque, theater, dance, and more.

Wander the galleries. Sip cocktails in the atrium while a DJ spins. Discover surprise performances in the outdoor sculpture garden, or catch a ten-minute play unfolding in the museum theatre.

One ticket gives you access to both nights.
Ages 18+ to enter, 21+ to drink.
