Pride Weekend Festival 

THE DATE: June 17-18

THE PLACE: Mosesian Center for the Arts

THE DETAILS: The Mosesian Center for the Arts in Watertown has announced events for a Pride Weekend festival and other programs, performances, and exhibitions for June and beyond. “We’re thrilled to see more people returning to live events and classes,” said Executive Director Darren Farrington. “Every month, we offer a diverse variety of the best in performing and visual arts that Greater Boston has to offer, and we hope people will take advantage of the easy access to the arts at the Arsenal.” 

On June 17-18, Boston drag and cabaret star Patty Bourrée returns to Mosesian Arts for her Last Pride on Earth. Intergalactic war, famine, and disease may have left Patty as the last queen standing on a now desolate planet, but naturally, she’s taking this as an opportunity to stage a final Pride Parade for a party of one. Journey with Patty and a cast of glamorously bizarre characters (all played by Patty, of course!) to a not-so-distant apocalyptic future in this all live-sung drag cabaret fit for the end of days. June 17 & 18, 8:00 PM. 

Also on June 18, Mosesian Arts proudly partners with the Boston Chapter of Drag Queen Story Hour for Let’s Say Gay: A Community Pride Event. LGBTQ+ role models from both organizations will lead this FREE afternoon of family-oriented visual and performing arts activities that celebrate creativity, inclusivity, and self-expression. The event will feature a fabulous all-ages read-along by the performers of Drag Queen Story Hour, exciting activities including collaborative visual arts projects and acting and movement workshops, and a Pride-themed dance party! Most arts activities will be geared towards 3rd-5th graders, but everyone ages 5 and up is welcome to attend and join the fun! June 18, 12:00 – 4:00 PM.
