Empire State Pride Agenda held its annual Tea Dance at Nova’s Ark in Water Mill. This year’s event celebrated the legalization of gay marriage across the country. “It’s the biggest celebration for the LGBT community in the Hamptons,” Nathan Schaefer, Executive Director of the Empire State Pride Agenda, shared. “We’ve been out here for more than a decade. People always look forward to coming out here and celebrating and supporting a really great cause.”
