Details

Join us for an exhibit reception for the Sonoma County LGBTQI Timeline

Curated by local LGBTQI historians, Tina Dungan & Shad Reinstein, the Sonoma County LGBTQI Timeline celebrates the significant role Sonoma County has played in LGBTQI culture and politics regionally, statewide and nationally. See how your life is reflected in the LGBTQI history of Sonoma County. 

Meet the LGBTQI+ Legacy Sonoma County!

Meet the members of LGBTQI+ LEGACY Sonoma County and learn about their work to preserve, collect, and archive historical materials from the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex communities of Sonoma County, California, through the year 2000.

Share Your Pride!

Share your pride and record an oral history for the Here + Queer, Sonoma County project! We want to hear your stories, big or small, about being LBGTQ+ in Sonoma County. Have a meaningful conversation with us and preserve your voice!

Library staff will interview and record your story. Participants will be asked to sign an interview agreement form, which allows your story to become part of the library’s digital collections for future generations to explore and learn.

Hands-on with local special collections

LGBTQ+ history materials from the History & Genealogy Library will be available for the public to review. Get a chance to see primary sources up close!
