Pride & Passion
Returning Saturday, May 21, 2011Pride & Passion celebrates diversity in our community and is the un-official annual kick-off to Gay Pride month in June. The first Pride & Passion, held in June 2006, was the largest one-time membership event ever held at the Tampa Museum of Art. Since then, the event has continued to encourage new memberships and raise funds in support of exhibitions and educational programs. In May 2010, the museum hosted the fifth anniversary of Pride & Passion in the 66,000-square-foot Cornelia Corbett Center, the museum’s new home located in downtown Tampa's Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park.
This annual event is produced by a volunteer steering committee in partnership with the Tampa Museum of Art. Thank you to our 2010 Committee members for helping this event to be such a success: Scott Moore, Chair; Rob Iles, Vice Chair (2011 Chair); Cynthia Agliano; Tracy Copes; Patti Marsters; Ty Maxey; Mark Nash; Robin Sharp; Lorrie White; and, Scott Taylor, Honorary Chair.
