Art of Pride 2026

Now in its fifth year, Art of Pride returns to the Hyde Park Art Center with an afternoon of queer joy, radical imagination, and collective celebration. This free, intergenerational event brings together LGBTQ+ artists, performers, makers, and community organizations from across Chicago to honor the transformative power of art and the brilliance of our queer and trans communities.

This year’s celebration features Live Performances & DJ Sets, Workshops & Art Activities, a Queer & Trans Artist Vendor Market, and so much more.

Whether you're a longtime neighbor, a young artist just finding your voice, or an ally looking to show up and celebrate—Art of Pride 2026 is a call to gather, create, dance, and honor the legacy and future of queer artists in Chicago.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
