Our Impact
In 2021, we organized exhibitions and public programs, including the multi-site public art project Pride Publics, attracting over 70,000 visitors. Our exhibitions and programs supported and uplifted the work of over 90 LGBTQ+ artists, scholars, and community leaders.
Our Webby-honored virtual reading of Larry Kramer’s The Normal Heart was directed by the renowned Paris Barclay and featured an all-star cast including Sterling K. Brown and Laverne Cox. The Normal Heart received high acclaim, reaching audiences across the US and 19 countries worldwide. The reading marked the first time the play featured a predominantly BIPOC and LGBTQ+ cast.
Through our education programming, we served 180 educators and administrators, providing lesson plan content to support teaching LGBTQ+ history in grades K-12. We also launched a LGBTQ+ youth-led storytelling program with a first cohort of six youth leaders.
