Happy National LGBTQ+ Pride Month 🥳

Throughout June, we'll be looking back at some of our favorite moments from PrideFest 2026, a week filled with celebration, visibility, community, and joy 🎨

Pride IN FULL COLOR was more than a theme, it was an invitation to show up boldly, live authentically, and celebrate every shade of who we are 💞

We're kicking off our photo series with the Progress Pride Flag Unfurling Ceremony in the heart of New Hope down the iconic Starbucks Building on the corner of Bridge and Main Streets 🏳️‍🌈

Following the ceremony, friends came together at Martine's Riverhouse Restaurant to raise a glass, have a bite, and officially launch an unforgettable PrideFest week 🥂

Thank you Amy Leon for taking these photos, to stay tuned as we share more memories from this year's celebration throughout the month 📸

New Hope lost one of its true originals with the passing of Kitty Keiser, a sassy, unforgettable force who helped shape and support our LGBTQ+ community for decades. From Allentown to New Hope, Kitty poured her heart into fundraising, advocacy, friendship, and showing up for people when they needed it most.

As one of the driving forces behind bringing FACT to New Hope and helping launch the first local “Snow Ball,” Kitty helped raise critical support for those affected by AIDS during some of the community’s hardest years. She was a beloved bartender, connector, storyteller, and friend to so many. Her legacy lives on in the community she helped build, the lives she touched, and the countless memories shared across bars, benefits, dance floors, and dinner tables.

We're sending love to Jackie, and to all who loved Kitty.
