Virtual Happy Hour Tour: LGBTQ History in NYC
The 1969 Stonewall Riots in Greenwich Village are widely considered to be the genesis of the modern gay rights movement. See 100 years of LGBTQ history mapped throughout NYC on this interactive virtual experience.
We “visit” five iconic and historic bars including Stonewall, Cubbyhole, and Julius’. AND we play trivia games and a drinking game called Cheers Queers!
From Billie Holiday, Andy Warhol, Marsha P Johnson to RuPaul, there’s a raucous, righteous, roaring good time to be had here for LGBTQ folx and allies. Travel through time and space from the comfort of your own home or wherever you make the party happen! Don’t let the pandemic rain on your Pride Parade!
Bring your friends and grab some drinks and get ready to discover the places that the LGBTQ community built, some dating all the way back to the 19th century. From secret societies to the Stonewall riots, the history of the LGBTQ community has deep roots in this neighborhood.
