On June 16, New York City’s LGBT Pride Rally officially kicked off Pride Week in the Big Apple, but the feelings of celebration and community were buoyed all week long with special events across the city, including burlesque performances at Therapy, a beer blast at the Eagle (above) musical superstar Katie Thompson, cuties, and drag divas at Industry, Mob Wives’ breakout star Big Ang Raiola at the Midtown Loft for Pride: A Deeper Love, and an outrageous pool party at the Thompson LES Hotel.
