Documenting LGBT History: A Presentation by the NYC LGBT Historic Sites Project
November 15, 2016 |
New York City's LGBT community has a long and vibrant history that predates the 1969 Stonewall rebellion. Despite this history, tangible reminders of the city's LGBT community, such as existing historic sites associated with arts and culture, social centers such as bars and LGBT organizations, and residences of notable figures remain largely unknown and potentially endangered.
The NYC LGBT Historic Sites Project is identifying and documenting historical and cultural sites in all five boroughs to help make the invisible visible and prevent threatened sites from disappearing.
Join a fascinating exploration of historic LGBT places throughout the five boroughs including Upper West Side sites such as Lincoln Center, the Dakota, Aaron Copland Residence at the Hotel Empire, the Continental Baths at the Ansonia, James Baldwin Residence, Lesbian Herstory Archives, and Hotel des Artistes.
