Celebrating Pride with 21c Museum Hotels

Partnering with Queer|Art for Pride, 21c is proud to support the non-profit providing creative and professional development to LGBTQ+ artists across the US.

21c Museum Hotel has always been committed to delivering a transformative 21st-century hospitality experience by expanding access to contemporary art and positively impacting its communities. Open seven days per week, 24 hours a day and free of charge, 21c is on a mission to remove all barriers to make art and culture inclusive and accessible.

And one of the many ways 21c celebrates inclusivity is to celebrate Pride.

For over 15 years, Pride events have been held across 21c’s eight properties – each year, a bigger celebration than the last. From driving exposure of Queer artists and drag brunches to ‘Love is Love’ themed hotel packages and exclusive Pride-themed cocktails, 21c’s Pride month events have also helped to raise funds for local LGBTQ+ organisations in their communities.

2023 saw the brand expand its support by partnering with one national LGBTQ+ arts organisation, Queer|Art, for their annual Pride campaign. Continuing the partnership for a second year in 2024, 21c will donate $21 of every Pride package booked between June 1, 2024, through July 31, 2024, for stays until September 4, 2024, to Queer|Art.

A non-profit art organisation, Queer|Art serves a diverse and vibrant community of LGBTQ+ artists, across generations and disciplines, in the US. Born out of the recognition of a generation of artists and audiences lost to the ongoing AIDS Crisis, and in a profound understanding that one of the many repercussions of that loss has been a lack of mentors and role models for a new generation of LGBTQ+ artists, Queer|Art’s mission is to provide individuals within our communities with the tools, resources, and guidance they need to achieve success and visibility for their work at the highest levels of their field.

At a local level, 21c continues their Sip & Support offer with a special Pride cocktail at select restaurant locations throughout June and July, and a portion of the proceeds will go to local LGBTQ+ organisations.

Committed to removing all barriers to make art and culture inclusive and accessible to all, sparking conversation and positive change, 21c Museum Hotels is honoured to be able to support LGBTQ+ artists and their communities throughout Pride month and beyond.
