The featured artists were invited to respond to the prompt: “Pride & Community — what does this theme mean to you?” The works submitted range from 2D and 3D pieces to augmented reality, each offering a personal, moving, and pride-filled reflection on life within Sonoma Valley and the LGBTQ+ community.
Sonoma Community Center is proud to partner with Sonoma Valley Pride to create a welcoming space for these artists to share their work, connect with the broader community, and offer their pieces for sale.

The Tradition
Sonoma Community Center’s Annual Dinner & Drag Event has become one of the most dazzling highlights of Pride Month in Sonoma Valley! Presented in partnership with Out in the Vineyard, this fabulous fundraiser takes over the third Saturday in June with glitz, glamour, and a whole lot of attitude.
Each year, a cult-favorite film sets the theme, whether it’s a drag queen classic like The Birdcage or a spectacle of sparkle like Moulin Rouge. With creative direction by Juliano Entertainment, the night becomes an immersive experience where drag queens bring the movie to life through high-energy numbers, witty banter, and over-the-top theatrics.
This event is 21+ only.
