“In Plain Sight” provides factual historic records and up-to-date information about people who have come out in different professional areas.  It features more than 800 entries with brief descriptions and zoom-in capabilities for high-res photos organized in 10 categories: AIDS/HIV, Arts, Business, Film/TV, Literature, Memorials, Milestones, Music, Sports, and Theatre/Dance.

In addition to the timeline, we have created a docent/classroom guide to engage students or audiences. You can download the guide here. If you would like archival materials for your talk or presentation, please contact us at Inquiry@Stonewall-museum.org and we will send you some duplicate copies of materials from our archive.

“In Plain Sight” was made possible thanks to the generous support of the Florida Humanities Council.

The Timeline can be accessed in-person at the museum or online at Stonewallnma.org in desktop or mobile devices.
