- Many LGBTQ+ pioneers have called New York City home over the years, and you can visit places across all five boroughs where those history-makers lived, worked, and are honored today—like Christopher Street Park across from the Stonewall Inn, the Alice Austen House in Staten Island, or the public murals painted by the artist Keith Haring. For more information about these sites and many others, check out the NYC Parks website. For events taking place throughout June at NYC Parks, see the NYC Parks Pride Month events calendar.
- The Village Preservation Society has created the Civil Rights and Social Justice Map as a guide to LGBTQ+ history in Greenwich Village and the surrounding areas that shows where these sites are located, and provides more information about why each of them is significant to the movement. For even more sites across all five boroughs, check out the NYC LGBT Historic Sites Project,which has indexed over 400 historically significant locations throughout the city.
