We went west in August 2025!
Friends, we were delighted to bring the most exciting installment yet of the HP Film Series to beautiful, storied Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center on Monday, August 25th! Co-director Bennett Singer and Walter Naegle, partner of unsung Civil Rights hero Bayard Rustin, joined us in-person for a screening and Q&A of “Brother Outsider,” the acclaimed documentary featured at this year’s WorldPride in Washington DC. Joining the panel were distinguished teen guests from the Butterfly Effect Project, and moderator Dr. Georgette Grier-Key, director of the Eastville Community Historical Society. AND the dazzling Dawnette Darden started us off with two songs, the second an audience-participation-invited “Oh Freedom!” What an awesome evening! Check out the film, if you haven’t!

And thank you to the many who made our film series debut this winter and spring so successful out of the gate–the first-ever LGBTQ+-themed film series in the Hamptons. We look forward to growing this vibrant new social and cultural outlet. See you at the movies!

Hamptons Pride, Inc. is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) public charity that celebrates and commemorates LGBTQ+ people and their allies on the East End of Long Island. The organization’s founding goal is the creation of an historical marker and outdoor social area on the footprint of The Swamp (the last and longest-running gay club in the Hamptons) in what is now Wainscott Green, a park in the Town of East Hampton. Hamptons Pride’s free services, including the annual Hamptons Pride Parade on the first Saturday of June in East Hampton Village, are made possible by the generosity of foundations, businesses, and individuals like you. Thank you!
