The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence 35th Anniversary
Easter in Golden Gate Park; The Emerald Jubilee, A “Trip” To Oz

SAN FRANCISCO --- The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence®, a leading edge Order of queer nuns, present their annual Easter in the Park on Sunday, April 20th at Golden Gate Park’s Hellman Hollow, formerly known as Speedway Meadow. The 35th anniversary celebration kicks off with Children’s Easter from 10 to noon, followed by the main event from noon to 4pm.

The merriment is usually held at Dolores Park, but it is being renovated. The move to Hellman Hollow is appropriate in that we support and represent all of San Francisco. This could well be the party of the year with attendees encouraged to create their own Wizard of Oz costumes. The day will feature some of the old and some things new. There will be an Easter Egg Hunt and other fun activities for the kids. In the afternoon, we will have our Easter Bonnet and Hunky Jesus Contests, with all of its antics, and in addition, we will be having a new contest called Foxy Mary, guaranteed to stir up the hen house.

“We’re welcoming everyone to our Easter with all its irreverence and scandal at this fabulous party,” said Sister Pansies. “It’s a time to promulgate universal joy and celebrate the beginning of spring. We encourage all to come out and strut their bonnets, get their Jesus on, and celebrate 35 years of indulgence with us. We promise a memorable day!”

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, Inc. is a 21st Century Order of queer nuns. Since their first appearance in San Francisco on Easter Sunday, 1979, the Sisters have been accused of "Ruining It For Everyone" with their habitual injection of gaiety into serious affairs including human rights, political activism and religious intolerance. The Sisters consider it their mission to "ruin" all detrimental conditions including complacency, guilt and the inability to laugh at one's self.
