Help The History Project launch
our new Transgender Project.

Join THP as we embark on a new initiative focused on recounting the history of Boston's transgender community. As with our past exhibits, we want the community to take ownership of the exhibit and guide us in determining its content.

To find out how you can become involved, contact Andrew Elder, THP's Operations Coordinator, at 617.266.7733 or at andrew.elder@historyproject.org.
