LGBTQ+ History Picnic

LGBTQ+ History Picnic

Saturday, August 20, 2022
11AM - 2PM
Parkman Bandstand, Boston Common
Free RSVP, Donations Accepted

In the style of gay liberation "be-ins" where the LGBTQ+ community would meet up to hang out and be gay in public, join The History Project for an LGBTQ+ picnic at the Parkman Bandstand on Boston Common.

We'll set up at 11AM and will be sharing self-guided LGBTQ+ history tour materials. At noon, we'll be reenacting historic LGBTQ+ speeches, poems, songs, and manifestos. Drop-in anytime between 11AM and 2PM!

Reenactment speakers to be announced.

RSVPs are encouraged but not required. This event is free and open to the public, a donation at any level helps us to document, preserve, and share LGBTQ+ history. Thank you for your support!
