Basket Raffle: Sunday December 8th

We are excited to be in the final stretch of our fundraising efforts to bring the National AIDS Memorial Quilt to Oneonta! This powerful symbol of remembrance, love, and solidarity for those affected by AIDS will be a significant event in our community and we need your help

Our first basket raffle was so successful we are organizing another. The raffle will be held on December 8, 2023, at the Southside mall during our annual holiday bazaar. We kindly request your support by donating raffle prizes. Themed baskets, individual products, gift certificates, Christmas gifts/toys, handmade items, artwork, or any other donations would be greatly appreciated.

Please feel free to reach out to kerri@otsegopridealliance.org if you are interested in donating!

Welcome to Otsego Pride Alliance

Otsego Pride Alliance is proud to host Pride in Oneonta, NY every year to celebrate and honor the LGBTQIA+ community and its history.

At OPA, our aim is to build  LGBTQIA+ community in this area. The Alliance includes, in addition to Otsego County, the queer community and allies in Upstate New York. Our organization started with the goal of bringing Gay Pride to Otsego County and has grown into a thriving queer community that hosts events all year and provides support for queer youth and families.

We know how important it is to have queer community for support, safety, friendship, and a sense of belonging. We invite you to join us for LGBTQ+ events, like skating, get-togethers in the park, drag shows, queer teen nights, and of course, Pride in Oneonta! We list gay, lesbian & transgender friendly events in Upstate New York throughout the year which you can find on our events page. If you have a queer event you’d like us to promote, please let us know!

We hold regular meetings to plan the future of the organization, set up social events, and prepare for Pridefest every year. If you are interested in getting more involved, please send us a message. We will be happy to have you find a place in our organization!
