(WNY News Now) – The Reg Lenna Center for The Arts will screen the critically acclaimed film Pride on Wednesday, June 4 at 7 p.m., pairing historical drama with local LGBTQ+ celebration and community engagement.
Pride (Wed., June 4 at 7 p.m.) depicts true events from England in 1984. Margaret Thatcher is in power and the National Union of Mineworkers is on strike, prompting a London-based group of gay and lesbian activists to raise money to support the strikers’ families.

Patrons are encouraged to arrive early for community resources courtesy of Jamestown Pride, AND a pop-up drag performance in the lobby
