Continuing a tradition
dating back to 1994, the
colorful Drag March returned
to the streets on
June 25 with the usual headline
emblazoned on the lead banner —
“It’s still just a Drag March.”
Hundreds joined together at
Tompkins Square and marched
to the Stonewall Inn during the
fun and entertaining Friday night
event. The energy was high and
the smiles were everywhere — and
often accompanied by laughs.
Co-founded in part by Rainbow
Flag creator Gilbert Baker, the
Drag March emerged 27 years ago
and continued even last year when
the pandemic sidelined many
events across the city.
