The legislative chamber became a runway as performers and advocates received their flowers at the Council's first Pride Ball.
Excerpt
New York City Hall transformed into a performance stage Tuesday night, as LGBTQ+ city lawmakers converted their chambers into a ballroom runway for artists representing each of the city’s five boroughs.
The New York City Council LGBTQIA+ Caucus kicked off June with its first-ever Pride Ball, featuring ballroom performances, a voguing competition, and awards given to local LGBTQ+ advocates.
The city council issued proclamations of honor to actress Hari Nef, social worker Asha Lyons, who works in gender-affirming care, and Rickke Mananzala, a nonprofit leader, for their contributions to LGBTQ+ life in New York City.
